EAST VINCENT TOWNSHIP, Pa. (AP) Authorities say an armed man who held off SWAT members for 10 hours surrendered after one of them sang him a Christmas carol.
Nathaniel Lewis, of Chester County, Pennsylvania, was taken into custody in East Vincent Township early on Dec. 26.
The Reading Eagle reports the 34-year-old Lewis allegedly fired at police officers who had responded when a concerned relative reported him acting erratically Christmas night.
The shots hit a police vehicle, a house and another vehicle. Police returned fire.
Eventually a negotiator got Lewis to agree to surrender after singing White Christmas to him.
