The officers kept asking him to step out and drop the knives, but he would not obey. After approx 30 minutes, the male came out of the structure and was waving a garden hoe around and then a long wooden candle stake. At one point he threw an object at the officers. The male was pepper-sprayed at one point and he fled back into the shed. Officers used the pepper spray a second time and the male finally surrendered. It’s not known if the male has mental issues, is intoxicated, or both and he will be evaluated. There were several beer cans around and in the shed.
