FARGO — Officers surrounded a home near the intersection of 21st Street and Second Avenue South, a couple blocks south of Burger Time on Main Avenue, late Monday night, Dec. 27.
They were called to the home just after 7 p.m., when a house-sitter checked on the house for the homeowner and found a woman inside who they did not know.
Officers said they saw her white hat bouncing around inside the home during a two-hour standoff at the residence.
Several times, police used a loudspeaker, saying they would send a K-9 in to bite the woman if she did not come out.
Just after 9 p.m., police said, the woman tried to slip out the back door only to be greeted by officers. She surrendered and was taken into custody.
