CHOCTAW COUNTY, Okla. (KTEN) — A Tuesday morning standoff led to the arrest of a man now facing arson charges.
Choctaw County Sheriff Terry Park said Sterling Crosslin allegedly set fire to two residences near Rufe and made death threats to his mother.
Crosslin, 30, then barricaded himself, leading to a two-and-a-half hour standoff before he was taken into custody by deputies and Choctaw Lighthorse Police personnel.
Crosslin faces two counts of second-degree arson and another charge of making domestic threats.
Park said no one was injured.
