Police descended on a South Jersey apartment building after they said a possibly armed woman barricaded herself in an apartment following an overnight argument with a neighbor.
The incident played out in the apartment complex off South Lenola Road in Maple Shade, Burlington County.
Maple Shade police said officers were first called to the first floor of the high-rise apartment building due to an altercation between two neighbors. One woman threatened a neighbor with a handgun and then retreated back to her apartment, investigators said.
A standoff ensued as police negotiators tried to talk the woman into surrendering. Residents on the first floor of the building were evacuated and a school bus stop was moved to a nearby location due to the standoff.
