A decal on a Vancouver police cruiser is seen in this undated photo. A man was taken into custody after a six-hour standoff at a single-room occupancy building in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside Wednesday. Officers were called to the Beacon Hotel on Hastings Street around 10:45 a.m. 'after a report that someone had pulled a gun inside the building,' the Vancouver Police Department said in a news release. 'When officers arrived, the armed suspect – a visitor to the building – had barricaded himself inside a room on the fourth floor,' the statement reads. More than 20 officers responded, including crisis negotiators and tactical officers from the Emergency Response Team, police said. Residents of the building – which provides housing for people with mental health and substance-use disorders, among other challenges – were evacuated as police attempted to negotiate with the suspect. The man was taken into custody shortly before 5 p.m., more than six hours after he barricaded himself into the room, according to police. The VPD said officers used a Taser and a beanbag shotgun during the arrest, and the suspect 'received medical attention for minor injuries.' The gun was recovered inside the suite and the investigation is ongoing, police said, adding that the suspect remains in custody.
