TOLEDO, Ohio — A police chase led to negotiations between authorities and several subjects inside a home in central Toledo Monday afternoon, and a search warrant with extensive results.
According to a Toledo police report, officers were contacted by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) regarding a vehicle that had eluded them. A TPD detective located the vehicle and stopped it, but as CBP arrived, the suspects fled in the vehicle, leading to a pursuit, police claimed.
During the pursuit, the suspect vehicle allegedly sideswiped a vehicle on I-75 NB, causing damage but not resulting in injury. The suspect vehicle then came to rest against a parked vehicle and the suspects exited the vehicle and fled the scene.
People inside the vehicle fled into a residence in the 600 block of Woodland Avenue around 3 p.m., Toledo police said. Police began negotiating with the suspects, including contacting an occupant via cell phone through a relative on scene. However, negotiations were quick and people began leaving the house immediately.
According to a police report, two women and four men exited the building prior to SWAT arrival, but authorities believed one other suspect was in the building. However, SWAT cleared the building and did not locate another suspect.
Interviews revelead two of the four men who exited the building were occupants of the initial vehicle.
There were no injuries reported.
U.S. Customs and border patrol officers arrived at the scene around 5:30 p.m.
Police arrested Tyaria Washington, who was the alleged driver of the vehicle in the initial chase and a resident of the Woodland Avenue building in the standoff. According to police, Washington said he fled because of a felonious assault warrant.
Also arrested were Keyontay Leach and Kyles Nelson, according to a report.
In a social media post Tuesday, Toledo police said they obtained a search warrant for the residence and seized objects including three hundred grams of fentanyl valued at $60,000, firearms, marijuana, extended magazines, a drum magazine, ammunition and cell phones.
