“It was crazy ridiculous,” an eyewitness told the station.
Responding to complaints of a nude, knife-wielding man, officers say they found the suspect, 26-year-old Andrew Helmsworth, barricaded in his home. A two-hour standoff with SWAT officers reportedly ensued, ending only when Helmsworth left his house to pluck out a tune.

Neighbors saw the man, identified by police as Andrew Helmsworth, yelling at officers, and said at one point, Helmsworth walked outside with a banjo, which he played for the officers.
Witnesses said the officers eventually subdued Helmsworth with what appeared to be a non-lethal round and took him into custody.
According to police, the investigation revealed that Helmsworth had assaulted a family member.
