GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Two people were arrested Friday night after a standoff at a Grand Rapids home.

The standoff happened at a home at Ionia Avenue and Putnam Street.

GRPD detectives originally asked for a car to be stopped and it fled when officers attempted to stop it. Grand Rapids Police received assistance with surveillance of the vehicle from a Michigan State Police helicopter that was already in the area.

The car eventually parked in the back of the house at Ionia and Putnam and those in the car went inside the house.

Police surrounded the home and the suspects eventually surrendered to police.
