 New York City police officers have arrested the man outside a building the United Nations headquarters compound. The building was earlier in lockdown when a man showed up holding a shotgun loaded with one buckshot round. This led to a two-hour standoff for the police but all the man wanted was for the UN to receive his documents. The call was made from within the UN. Once on scene the officers observed the male wearing a red jacket, blue jeans, white hair holding what appeared to be a shotgun directly under his chin. The man also had a bag with him. The officers immediately secured a safe perimeter while additional resources responded to the scene. The emergency services unit made initial contact with the individual. One of our ESU he saw some Matthew LaBrizzi did a great job. He began the dialogue with the individual and continued the conversation throughout the entire incident. Based on statements he made we knew early on that this did not appear to be terror related. He had some papers he wanted delivered to the UN. The dialogue went back and forth about how he might be able to accommodate his request and bring the incident to a peaceful conclusion. Ultimately members of the emergency service unit took possession of the papers were able to deliver them to the UN. As a result the individual who put down his shotgun was taken into custody without incident at approximately 1.40 pm.
