ARVADA, Colo. (CBS4)- The man who walked into Arvada Police Headquarters with what looked like a real gun and kept police outside during a standoff for several hours has been identified.

Police said he had been making suicidal threats. Webb, 29, eventually surrendered after three hours. No one was hurt.
