Family helps coax man out of car during SWAT standoff

TOMBALL, TX (KTRK) -- A man's family is credited with helping end a SWAT standoff in Tomball.

The incident began after a man allegedly led police in a chase on the 610 Loop. The driver took police all the way to Highway 249 and Boudreaux in northwest Harris County.

Deputies say the man only stopped after blowing a tire.

There is no word on what charges he may face.
