WILKES-BARRE, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — Police released details after a stand-off in Wilkes-Barre Tuesday shut down a road for a few hours.
According to investigators, on November 19 around 2:00 p.m., officers were called to Terrace Street for a man refusing to leave a house and threatening to shoot Luzerne County Sheriff's Department deputies.
