After an hours-long standoff with multiple police agencies and SWAT Team officers on Wednesday, two wanted fugitives from Delaware were arrested in Atlantic City, authorities said.
A man and woman in their 20s were safely taken into custody after refusing to surrender to law enforcement throughout the morning and early afternoon, according to Lt. Kevin Fair, a spokesman for the Atlantic City Police Department.
At 7:37 a.m., patrol officers were called to the 100-north block of Georgia Avenue to assist U.S. Marshals Service Fugitive Task Force members in making a pair of arrests, Fair said.
Rahiem Jackson, 23, of Dover, Delaware, was wanted as a fugitive of justice on a weapons offense, police said.
