A man demanded money from a bank in Arlington, Virginia, and held four adults and a child hostage on Tuesday before police were able to take him into custody, authorities say. The man’s name was not immediately released. The five people, including a child, are safe after the man barricaded them inside the Wells Fargo bank in the 3100 block of Washington Boulevard, in the Clarendon area, Arlington County police said. The group included patrons and employees of the bank. No injuries were reported. A hostage negotiator responded to the standoff.“Preliminary information indicates the suspect entered the bank, implied he had a weapon, and demanded money,” police said shortly before 4 p.m. Tuesday. “The suspect remains barricaded inside the bank with patrons/employees. Police remain on scene working to resolve the incident.” Video footage showed a number of officers in the area, with streets shut down. People in the area were advised to expect police activity. The suspect has been taken into custody without any further incident.
