January 9, 2012 · 4:02 PM

A 26 year-old man barricaded himself into a house on 428th Avenue Southeast Sunday night, prompting a response by more than a dozen King County Sheriff's Deputies, as well as the department's TAC 30 (SWAT) team.

At 8:40 p.m., Sheriff's spokesperson Cindi West said the office received the first call about the man, who was also believed to be suicidal.

"He eventually came out of the house on his own," West wrote in an e-mail message.

The man was arrested at 11:30 p.m., with no incident.
