The St. Joseph Police Department has identified the St. Joseph man arrested on a warrant after an eight-hour long standoff overnight in midtown.

25-year-old David Worley was arrested on a felony warrant out of Platte County for Burglary.

According to the police a fire ended an armed standoff in midtown Saint Joseph Wednesday morning.  Police Sergeant James Langston said officers responded to a disturbance call shortly after 7 Tuesday night at 2402 Olive.  A man at that address barricaded himself in the basement and threatened the officers.  The Special Response Team was called out.
