Four homes in the area of Windy Pine Lane and Arkansas Lane in Arlington were evacuated early Friday morning as Arlington police dealt with a hostage situation.
The situation ended around 8 a.m. Friday around 7 hours after it began.
SWAT units entered the home and apprehended the young man said to be involved in this incident and found the woman unharmed.
Sgt. Christopher Cook with the Arlington Police Department says two 911 calls related to this incident came to police departments in Arlington and Pantego.
Cook said around 1 a.m., a neighbor called 911 after they heard a young woman outside the home crying out for help. At the same time, Cook said Pantego received a 911 call from another woman who escaped from the home and said a young woman was assaulted inside and needed help.
The home is described as a duplex residence in the 2500 block of Windy Pine.
When officers arrived on the scene, the young woman and a young man were inside the house and would not leave the residence to talk to police officers.
Investigators said they believe the young woman was being held against her will inside the home and initiated hostage procedures.
Arlington SWAT units and other police officers were on scene and say that attempts to communicate with the people inside the home were unsuccessful in the last few hours of the incident.
Cook said the SWAT vehicle that parked outside the home and used the loud speaker on the vehicle to shout commands and try to get the two people believed to be inside to "come out of the house" and/or "pick up the phone."
Cook said Arlington police believe there could be some weapons inside the house.
The witness to the alleged assault, who also contacted 911 in Pantego, was on scene with investigators to help provide more information about the young man and young woman.
Cook said police are still working to determine the exact relationship between the young man and young woman, but that the assault is likely to be classified as "family violence."
Police are not releasing the names of the individuals involved.
NBC 5's Keaton Fox saw families with small children evacuated away from the scene. Cook confirmed nine people in total have been evacuated.
Cook says while some homes in the area were evacuated, all residents on Windy Pine Lane were recommended to should stay inside.
NBC 5 has crews on the scene gathering more information. As this is a developing story, details may change as we receive more information.
