Amazon’s drone deliveries have officially resumed in College Station and in Arizona after a two month break.

College Station police spent part of Friday morning (April 4) dealing with a man who was arrested after barricading himself in a woman’s fourplex unit off Southwest Parkway between Anderson and Bee Creek. CSPD officer David Simmons says the man broke into the fourplex and threatened the woman with a knife. The woman was able to escape after the man fell asleep. Simmons says officers responded to multiple 9-1-1 calls around 6:45 a.m. That included officers who were wrapping up the night shift and those coming on the day shift. The CSPD presence included the department’s SWAT and hostage negotiation teams and the K-9 and drone units. After contact could not be made with the man, officers entered the fourplex unit and found him inside a kitchen sink cabinet. Click below to hear David Simmons visit with WTAW’s Bill Oliver.
