"An early‑morning alarm at a burger restaurant on Lower Azusa Road in Temple City led to a bizarre, hours‑long standoff after an unnamed robbery suspect who had no permission to be inside refused to leave. Police arrived shortly after 3 a.m., spent hours calling for him to come out peacefully, evacuated the immediate area and eventually brought in a SWAT team; the situation ended peacefully around 2:45 p.m. when one person was taken into custody without incident. While officers maintained a prolonged presence on scene, they were even observed ordering food from another nearby location to eat during the operation, and photographers captured deputies outside as the scene was secured." - Farley Elliott
