JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The Jamestown Police Department have one man in custody following an hours long standoff Wednesday night.

Jamestown Police Chief Scott Edinger reports that officers responded just before 11 PM Wednesday night to a domestic disturbance at 1600 11th Avenue NE.

The victim of the domestic reported that Shawn Teggatz, 54 of Jamestown, was inside, possibly armed and threatened to harm the victim and himself. Teggatz also had a “No Bond warrant” for his arrest in Burleigh County. When he was contacted by police, he barricaded himself inside and refused to communicate.

“Officers evacuated the building and continued to attempt contact over the next several hours,” Chief Edinger reported.

A search warrant was obtained and the James/Valley Special Operations team (J/V SOT) and Crisis Negotiations team (CNT) were called to the scene.

“After many more attempts to communicate with Teggatz, the J/V SOT forced contact through the exterior of the building,” Chief Edinger stated. “Teggatz resisted arrest, including an unsuccessful attempt to take him into custody using a taser. Officers physically restrained him and were able to take him into custody.”

Teggatz was examined at the scene by Jamestown Ambulance and later booked at the Stutsman County Correctional Center.

Several formal charges are pending review by the Stutsman County State’s Attorney, in addition to the Burleigh county warrants. The incident remains under investigation.

The Jamestown Police Department was assisted by the Stutsman County Sheriff’s Office, Valley City Police Department, Barnes County Sheriff’s Department, James/Valley Crisis Negotiation Team, Jamestown Fire Department and Jamestown Area Ambulance.
