A 50-year-old Beloit man is in custody after an overnight stand-off with police.

Deputy Police Chief Norm Jacobs says Kenneth J. Dodge of 1937 Grandview Drive was arrested about 4:00 a.m. Thursday morning on charges of Domestic Disorderly Conduct while Armed and Failure to Obey a Police Officer.

Officers responded to the residence about 11:30 in the evening, and the swat team was called out shortly after, following what Jacobs reports included threats involving a weapon.
