Armed Standoff In Livingston County Ends Without Incident

PUTNAM TOWNSHIP (WWJ) - An armed standoff Wednesday in Livingston County ended peacefully, with the subject taken into custody for further evaluation.

Officers from the County Sheriff's Department responded to a home in Putnam Township after receiving a tip from police in Plymouth that a man, possibly suicidal, was headed there.
