GREELEY — Police ended their roughly four-day standoff with an armed man at about 3 a.m. Thursday when tactical officers arrested Jacob Powell without incident.

It would take SWAT officers six hours, dozens of flash bang grenades and teargas rounds and the deployment of two bomb squad robots before Powell finally surrendered. SWAT also fired one less lethal round during the operation, which police think struck Powell in the right hip.

It was the two robots that ultimately flushed Powell out of his hiding space inside the home, said Capt. Mike Savage.

“We knew he was moving inside the home, but it was the robot team that was eventually able to give us a visual,” Savage said. “He (Powell) probably figured it was futile to continue trying to hide inside the home and he finally complied with our commands to give himself up.”
