Chesapeake Police have one man in custody after he barricaded himself inside an apartment in the 2900 block of Fireside Road after fleeing from a traffic stop.

Police say 31-year-old Ayenda Hodges was stopped at 8:22 a.m. at the intersection of Campostella Road and Parkside Drive for a traffic violation.

Hodges fled from the traffic stop on foot and entered the apartment. The apartment does not belong to Hodges but he does know the residents.
