FLORENCE – The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office says a suspect is now in custody after a lengthy standoff with officers Saturday afternoon.
Main Street in Florence was shut down due to heavy police activity Saturday afternoon, as deputies and officers searched for a wanted person that was possibly armed. Deputies, Fremont County SWAT, and Florence Police Officers responded to the scene.
The suspect reportedly barricaded himself in the rafters above a Main Street business, as he was wanted for multiple felony warrants. Hours later, Clint Long was taken into custody.
Florence Police Chief DeLaurentis said, “We are attempting to locate a wanted subject that may be armed and we are taking every precaution to ensure the safety of the community.”
