A Hyannis man faces arraignment today in Barnstable County District Court, after a standoff that lasted nearly seven hours.
Police were called to a home on St. Francis Circle at around 7:40 a.m.
Wednesday, on a report that Justin Moreira was holding a woman at knifepoint.
At least three other residents were inside the home at the time. Moreira fired several shots at police and a robotic dog.
Authorities eventually used pepper spray and a ballistic vehicle with an attached demolition to force Moreira to surrender.
Moreira, who is 30, faces attempted murder and firearms counts.
