Aurora Police Arrest 1 After Standoff

AURORA, Colo. (CBS4) - A man wanted for attempted murder surrendered to police early Sunday morning after an hours-long standoff at an apartment building.

At approximately 2 a.m. at the Silverbrook Apartments at 15453 East First Avenue, Aurora police responded to a report of a fight and an armed man in a parking lot. When police arrived, a man told them he was struck by another man carrying a shotgun who then ran into an apartment.
