GREENSBURG MAN IN CUSTORY AFTER SWAT STANDOFF

A Greensburg man is in custody after a standoff with SWAT officers yesterday at his home on Perry Avenue.  The Trib reports that 34-year-old Tyler Schultheis was wanted on a warrant for aggravated assault, strangulation and other crimes when police obtained a search warrant for his home.  After threatening officers around 6:20 AM, Greensburg Police brought in the county SWAT team.  Schultheis refused to comply with demands and tear gas did not affect him.  Police found him hiding in a closet on the second floor.  He was taken into custody at 11:00 AM.  He now faces new charges of resisting arrest and obstructing police.  A preliminary hearing is set for December 26th.
