A Salem man who barricaded himself in a house with a small child was arrested on Saturday after a SWAT team was called to the tense standoff.

Officers responding to a domestic dispute blocked off Charles Street while officials negotiated with the man, who barricaded himself inside a home with his young child for four hours.

The man, whose name has not been released, surrendered peacefully and was taken into custody.

There were no reported injuries.
