FIRST REPORT
The suspect who was the subject of an hourslong standoff at a Washington Twp. motel surrendered shortly after a SWAT team breached the door to his room, Montgomery County Sheriff Rob Streck said.
Deputies were dispatched just before midnight Monday to the motel on Miamisburg Centerville Road near Interstate 675 after a 911 caller reported hearing gunshots in a neighboring room.
