Just before 2:30 on Saturday morning police were called to a domestic dispute on the 2100 block of Valley Road. According to Cumberland County Public Information Officer John Bruetsch, the woman involved said the man threatened her with a gun.
The man is 46-year-old Charles Snavely, who fled from the home when East Pennsboro Township police arrived. Police say they closed Valley Road and officers from several other stations helped look for Snavely. Cumberland and Dauphin County Special Response Teams responded, and a State Police helicopter helped in the search.
After almost six hours, the SRT was able to make contact with Snavely via cell phone at 8:00. He surrendered peacefully at 8:05, said Bruetsch.
Other than extreme cold, no officers or Snavely were injured. Snavely is in police custody and charges are pending.
