A standoff with the man in the water lasted more than two hours before he was taken into custody. The incident began when Sonoma County deputies attempted to pull over the suspect, but he did not stop, authorities said.

Law enforcement can be heard in video from the scene telling bystanders, “You are in great danger by being where you are. I recommend evacuating the area right now. You are in crossfire danger.” A community alert at 12:34 p.m. from the Petaluma Police Department advised the public to avoid the marina. At 2:42 p.m., the sheriff’s office announced that the suspect was in custody. The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office did not initially release any further details about the incident.
