A standoff where a man was allegedly armed with a sword and barricaded himself in a Mississauga home has come to an end.

The standoff started just before 11:00, on Manzanillo Cres., near the Ninth Line & Brittania and came to an end around 1:45 Tuesday morning.

Peel police say they tried everything they could to end the impasse peacefully. Negotiators were brought in to speak with the man and the tactical unit eventually breached the door and tried to apprehend the suspect but he escaped through a second floor window and fled the area on foot around 12:45 this morning.

Peel police set up a perimeter and caught the suspect about an hour later in a backyard with the help of the K-9 unit and York's chopper

There are no reports of injuries, or if anyone was inside with the suspect.
