ELBA, Minn. — After a three-hour stand-off, a police negotiator talked a man into surrendering from an Elba home where he was holed up. This was about 10:20 p.m. at an address on the State Highway 74 main drag through town. The family escaped the house safely, deputies said. The surrender was without incident. The man reportedly had access to a gun in the house, but it was not believed he armed himself. The man was taken 22 miles to the county jail in Winona.
