TEUTOPOLIS, Ill. (WCIA) — A man who was reported to be armed was arrested Saturday afternoon after an hours-long standoff at a Teutopolis apartment he allegedly broke into.

According to Effingham County Sheriff Paul. F Kuhns, deputies responded “mid-morning” to the reports of a man who was having an emotional crisis at 200 S Smith Street Friday night into Saturday morning. Reports also said that the man was armed.

Kuhns told WCIA that the man allegedly broke into a neighboring apartment by breaking the door down. Occupants of this apartment heard him kicking the back door down, and as he did so, they were able to escape through the front door of the unit.

The man then barricaded the doors of the neighboring apartment where he was and would not talk to police. During the standoff, deputies and officers on scene did not know if the man was armed.

At approximately 2:20 p.m., police was able to make entry into the apartment and arrest the man “without too much incident.” No injuries to the officers or the suspect were reported during this situation.

On scene, the Effingham County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by Illinois State Police and Effingham City Police.

“I’m very grateful and pleased with how well our agencies worked together,” Kuhns said.

No weapons were found on the man at the time of the arrest, but weapons were recovered from his apartment. Property damage was reported at the neighboring apartment the man was taken into custody at.

The man is now at the Effingham County Jail and will have a pre-trial hearing on Monday. Kuhns expects additional information on this incident to be released that day as well.

WCIA reached out to State Police for additional information but did not receive an immediate response. There is no further information at this time.
