1 In Custody Amid Search For Armed Suspect In Stanton

STANTON (CBSLA) — A man has been taken into custody by Orange County sheriff's deputies who were searching a Stanton neighborhood for a possibly armed suspect

Authorities say a man who was reportedly armed ran into a home 12100 block of Leafwood at about 9:30 a.m. The man had apparently had an argument with a family member before running off and entering another home he does not live in.

The area of Briarwood and Chapman was closed to traffic, and drivers were told to avoid the area. Deputies searched the neighborhood with a helicopter and police dogs.

The suspect was found hiding behind plywood in a home a few doors down at about 12:15 p.m. He was unarmed when arrested.
