Cape Coral police officers and Special Weapons and Tactics swarmed a home along Southwest Eighth Court, blocking off the street.
The Cape Coral Police Department said officers responded to the home near the 3800 block of Southwest Eighth Court in Cape Coral around noon.
“We could hear the CO2 canisters going off and so we knew it was tear gas. I believe they were shooting it from the garage into the attic,” said neighbor Matthew Cooker.
Police arrested Caleb James Carson, 36, for multiple felony domestic battery charges after an hours-long standoff with CCPD officers and SWAT.
“Ever since they moved in, 2, 6, 8 in the morning, they’re screaming, fighting, pushing each other, yelling. It’s been an ongoing thing,” said Cooker.
According to CCPD, Carson barricaded himself in the attic, and no one else was in the home. The Cape Coral SWAT team was able to get Carson out of the attic and place him in custody around 6 p.m.
Carson was taken to Lee County Jail and is facing the following charges:
- Domestic violence battery by strangulation
- Resisting without violence
