GONZALES — A man who barricaded himself inside a home in a Gonzales neighborhood Thursday was taken into custody after an hours-long standoff. 

Special units responded to a person who barricaded themselves in their home around 12 p.m., the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office said. 

APSO said Keenan Brown barricaded himself in a home along Dutchtown Crossing and has warrants for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, criminal trespassing and a fugitive warrant in Tarrant County, Texas. 

A negotiation team was on the scene, and photos show what appear to be the Crisis Response Team and several more APSO units.

The suspect was taken into custody around 3:30 p.m. APSO says there was no imminent threat to the community.
