I-805 Standoff Ends in Driver's Arrest

A pursuit that started in Orange County headed south to San Diego and interrupted traffic on a major highway in Mission Valley overnight.

All lanes of southbound Interstate 805 were reopened before the morning commute.

Anaheim Police say they got a call about a man brandishing a weapon and tracked down a possible suspect in his car.

The driver led police officers on a chase that ended around midnight where I-805 meets Interstate 8 in San Diego County.

A crisis negotiator spoke with the driver on the phone for several hours.

The man surrendered to police around 3:30 a.m.

No one was injured in the pursuit and standoff.
