GREEN GARDEN TOWNSHIP, IL \u2014 A reportedly suicidal man inside a Green Garden Township home drew a heavy police presence Wednesday, the Will County Sheriff’s Office said Thursday. <\/p>\n
Deputies were called to the home on South 88th Avenue, south of Bruns Road, at 3:47 p.m. Wednesday. Deputies at the scene met with a relative of the man, who said he was threatening to harm himself.<\/p>\n
Deputies were able to talk via telephone with the man, who refused to leave the home. <\/p>\n
After several hours of negotiations, deputies left the scene at 8:40 p.m., so as not to force a confrontation and because no crime had been committed, said Will County Sheriff’s Office Public Information Officer Elizabeth Matthews. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"GREEN GARDEN TOWNSHIP, IL \u2014 A reportedly suicidal man inside a Green Garden Township home drew a heavy…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":161768,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[75,84,83,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-161767","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manhattan","tag-manhattan","tag-manhattan-headlines","tag-manhattan-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161767","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=161767"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161767\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/161768"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=161767"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=161767"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=161767"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
