A 30-year-old man was arrested in Parc-Extension after a standoff with police on Friday night.

Police arrived at a residence at the corner of Champagneur and Liege late in the afternoon to carry out an arrest warrant for conjugal violence.

Upon their arrival, the suspect barricaded himself in his apartment. Police said the man had a history of violence.

After lengthy negotiations failed, police forced their way into the apartment and apprehended the suspect at 10:40 p.m.
