Police then surrounded the home and using a loudspeaker ordered the suspect, later identified as Brian J. Moya, 50, to come out. When he refused, the APD SWAT team took over.
After obtaining a search warrant to enter the home, SWAT officers took Moya into custody shortly before 4 a.m.
He was admitted to UNM Hospital and was still there late Friday morning, a hospital spokesperson said. The nature of Moya's medical condition was not released.
