SPRINGDALE -- A Springdale man was arrested Tuesday night after a six hour standoff.
Police responded at about 3:30 p.m. to 705 Union St. where a man was reportedly acting erratic and saying people wanted to kill him, according to a Springdale Police Department news release.
Jeffrey Sauls, 60, refused to come to the door of the apartment, but spoke to officers through the door.
Sauls told police "he had a rifle and was ready to go," the release states.
Officers negotiated with Sauls for about 6 hours, attempting to get him to come out and speak with them.
Sauls was eventually taken into custody without incident and taken to a medical facility for psychological evaluation.
No one was injured during the events, according to the release.
