CLARE, MI -- An eight-hour standoff Monday at a Clare hotel came to a peaceful end.
Clare County Central Dispatch received a call around 12:15 a.m. Monday, July 27 for a possible domestic disturbance at the Quality Inn, 10318 S. Clare Ave.
Officers were advised a subject involved in the incident - a 49-year-old man from the Big Rapids area - had a handgun.
Clare Police Chief Brian Gregory told MLive that the man was alone when police arrived, with the victim outside.
The man, whose name has not been released, came to the door when police arrived, confronted officers, and refused to put the weapon down, which led officers to retreat to safety.
“Shots were fired by suspect into the parking lot where officers were standing,” said Gregory. “He was in his room and hallway of (the) hotel.”
Hotel occupants were safely escorted from the scene.
Negotiations began with the man with assistance from the Northern Michigan Mutual Aid Emergency Response Team, Clare County Sheriff’s Office, and Michigan State Police.
The man eventually peacefully surrendered to police after eight hours. He was taken to the Clare County Sheriff’s Office and is being held pending arraignment.
Mobile Medical Response, Clare City Fire Department, and City of Clare Department of Public Works also assisted police at the scene.
The incident remains under investigation.
