CRANSTON, R.I. (WPRI) - People have been allowed back into their homes in a Cranston neighborhood after being evacuated during an hours-long standoff Wednesday night.

Police said a 30-year-old veteran suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder was behind the incident.

Police responded to a home on Legion Way around 7 p.m. after being alerted by the man's family.


"He has had some issues in the past, and I'm happy to say he's going to a place where he's going to get the help he needs and all of our officers are going home safe," said Col. Polombo.
