A man arrested after a long overnight standoff in Springfield is facing multiple charges including arson.
Police said officers were initially called to an apartment on Byers Street late Wednesday night for reports of a domestic incident involving an attempted fire.
Authorities said the suspect, 62-year-old Victor Velasquez, barricaded himself inside the apartment with a knife, leading to a standoff that lasted six hours before officers entered the home and found him unresponsive from a suspected drug overdose.
He was given Narcan and taken to the hospital, where his condition is not known at this time.
