Pursuit Suspect Barricades Himself Inside Houston Home for Nearly 5 Hours

June 21, 2025 – Houston, TX – A suspect who led police on a lengthy vehicle pursuit late Saturday night barricaded himself inside a residence for nearly five hours before finally surrendering to authorities without incident. According to the Houston Police Department, the incident began around 11:30 p.m. when a DWI Task Force officer spotted a driver exhibiting erratic behavior. The suspect fled when officers attempted a traffic stop, leading police on a pursuit from Loop 610 to Highway 290 outbound, then looping back inbound to eastbound 610. Eventually, the suspect returned to a residence in the 1200 block of Cavalcade and barricaded himself inside. Houston SWAT units responded and negotiated with the suspect through the early morning hours. After nearly five hours, the man surrendered peacefully. Two females who were inside the home were also detained. Authorities say they are working to determine whether charges will be filed against the suspect or the two women.
