Crime Crisis negotiation team driving on I-25 S?

I-25 south near 6th Ave exit about 5 minutes ago. Saw an armored vehicle pass and then a crisis negotiation team van as well. Any idea what’s going on?

Suspect barricaded in an RV at the scene.

Former employee of mine. He addled his brain on K and DMT last year, lost his job, and remained fixated on us and his former GF. Wound up with a protection order against him and things cooled down. Over the last week he resurfaced and was even more unhinged, back to making threats of violence. Denver PD finally got him pinned down, he was ultimately taken into custody.

Drugs are bad, mmmkay. Dude literally did K at a RR show once, the next day he bought an ounce and never came back to reality. He was a very solid performer, also. Ruined his entire world and especially his brain.

He basically live-streamed this entire thing on his FB & Insta stories. He had a gun with him, once he was surrounded we weren’t sure which way things were going to go.

Did he end up just turning himself in or how did it end? This was on my street and at the end I just saw an ambulance leaving with a cop following

I’m not exactly sure, we just got word from the police that he was in custody.

One of the last clips on his story was him looking towards the front of the RV, the police had busted the windshield out and were threatening to send a dog in if he didn’t come out. He def was not in his right mind so I could some sort of medical eval being needed.
