LOVELAND — Police and SWAT team members arrested a 25-year-old Longmont man who barricaded himself in a home around 1:45 p.m. Wednesday in the 1800 block of Southwest Third Street.

Spokesman Justin Chase said the SWAT team responded to the residence, at 1818 SW Third St., because the suspect inside, Andrew Ives, was wanted on a pair of felony warrants and was reportedly driving a stolen car.

“SWAT came to help patrol because this individual had a felony warrant,” Capt. Rob McDaniel said. “They were here to get him to surrender.”

Police had closed off Southwest Third Street from Dotsero Drive to Glenda Drive just before 3 p.m. — and Loveland police officers and SWAT team members were at the scene. An armored vehicle and SWAT command vehicle responded to the incident as well.

Ives exited the residence peacefully after SWAT members made several loudspeaker attempts at contacting him. Dozens of neighbors gathered at both ends of the road closure to watch the incident unfold.

Nick King, who has lived on the street for almost six years, said the suspect had been living there for a couple months.

“They’re really quiet,” he said. “We have had no problems with them. I’m just glad it ended well.”
