On Friday, November 29th, in response to a call about an "unwanted person" at a Claybrook Road house, Dover Police encountered a male with a knife. The individual barricaded himself in the house, announced Dover Police Department in a press release.  

Dover Police attempted to deescalate the situation and called for mutual aid from nearby towns and from the Metropolitan Law Enforcement Council (METRO-LEC). 

Around 3:00 p.m. on Friday, METRO-LEC took the individual into custody. No injuries were reported as a result of the incident.
