About Me

My photo
Durham, NC, United States
As a photojournalist my principal interests are spot news, fires, etc. I also like to see the humor in everyday situations. In my 42 years as a photojournalist I have seen a lot of people die. First, during the Salvadoran Civil War, and since then, on some of the 'mean streets' of my adopted hometown......still, a great little town all the same!

Durham police capture barricaded suspect!

Durham SET Team officers take William Yohe into custody at his house on Barnsdale Ct. in the Hope Valley Farms sub-division. Mr. Yohe had threatened a security guard by indicating that he would shoot him with a shotgun, then barricaded himself inside his residence when officers responded to the call.  After lobbing almost two dozen tear gas canisters into the home, officers stormed the front door, and after breaking down the reinforced door, they were finally able to overpower Mr. Yohe and take him into custody.

Durham SET Team officers hook up a steel cable to the reinforced grille on the suspects door and tear it off it's hinges with their armored car.
