A landlord and tenant dispute ended with an hours long SWAT standoff. 

San Diego Police say it happened early Thursday morning in Normal Heights when the landlord barricaded himself in a home following an argument with a tenant. 

Police say they responded to a call of a victim allegedly struck with a baseball bat.

The suspect has been identified as 51-year-old Liberty Harp. After several hours, he surrendered to police. The victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
