LA MIRADA >> Deputies took a man into custody after he holed-up inside a home along the La Mirada border in unincorporated Orange County Wednesday afternoon, authorities said.

Orange County deputies continued trying to persuade the man to surrender more than four hours later, Smitson said. Los Angeles County deputies helped close off nearby streets and evacuate nearby homes.
Orange County sheriff’s officials announced about 5:45 p.m. that the suspect had surrendered and been taken into custody.
