(La Porte, IN) - Details are being released about a man forced from a home with something similar to tear gas in La Porte last week.

 

It happened on Valentine’s Day in the 200 block of Planett St.

 

La Porte Police said officers were called there about a man who allegedly pointed a gun at his spouse and a nearby neighbor. The man also refused to come out of the home, police said.

 

The La Porte Police Emergency Response Team tried to negotiate with the man, who allegedly threatened to harm officers if they came inside the residence.  

 

He finally came out after chemical munitions were released into the residence and he was taken into custody. So far, additional details have not been made available.
