ATLANTA -

Atlanta police say a man wanted on an unknown charge by DeKalb police barricaded himself in a home in northeast Atlanta on Thursday.

They say the man barricaded himself in a unit of an apartment complex in the 1500 block of Hardee Street while units were apparently serving him a warrant.

Negotiators held guns to the windows and doors of the unit, before bringing the suspect out and getting him to the ground. He was then led down the stairs and taken from the building to a police car.

No other information is known.
