CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department says a SWAT situation in east Charlotte has come to an end.
At this point, it's still unclear if any suspects have been arrested.
However, the agency tells WCNC Charlotte that the suspect is no longer in the home.
CMPD says the incident began around 2:59 p.m. on Monday when officers responded to a call about someone communicating threats on Leaning Pine Lane.
The subjects involved in that incident were separated and left the scene, as did the officers. Investigators later learned that the suspect was also a suspect in an unrelated crime in Charlotte.
Officers returned to the home on Leaning Pine Lane to serve an arrest warrant. However, the suspect is refusing to cooperate, according to police.
CMPD says the SWAT team is attempting to de-escalate the situation.
Police are asking the public to avoid the area and if they must be in the area they are requested to follow the instructions of officers at the scene.
No information has been given on the suspect's identity or the pending charges.
More details will be released when they are available.
