SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - Police in Syracuse say an eight-hour standoff at a home has ended with four men in custody and no one injured.

Authorities say the police department's Special Weapons and Tactics team was deployed to West Matson Avenue around 11:45 p.m. Sunday after a woman came home and found several men in her home. When police arrived, the men ran back into the home.

Police were able to remove several people from the home before 6 a.m. Monday.

About two hours later, police used tear gas to get the men to come out. All four are being questioned.

No injuries have been reported.
