MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Memphis police say they’ve arrested a burglary suspect who had been barricaded in a South Memphis home for hours.

WMC-TV reports SWAT team officers set off a flash bang early Friday before entering the residence and apprehending the suspect.

Police say the suspect is one of three in a car that officers were chasing. The car was involved in multiple wrecks before the suspects left it and ran on foot.

Police said one suspect was arrested shortly afterward and they are still looking for the third.
