58-year-old David M. Bush Sr. has been charged with unlawful possession of a firearm in connection with an early Tuesday morning standoff.

The St. Joseph Police department responded to 2000 block of Elm Street in St. Joseph Monday Evening on a domestic disturbance call.  When Mr. Bush allegedly refused to come out the Special Response Team was called.  Police Sgt. Brett Kelly told the St. Joseph Post that firearms were in the home.

Sgt. Kelly said after a negotiator began talking to Mr. Bush other family members were allowed to leave the residence.

Shortly after midnight officers breached the door and administered pepper spray on Mr. Bush who then surrendered.

No shot were fired and no injuries were reported.

Mr. Bush has been denied bond.
