Homes in the area of Windy Pine Lane and Arkansas Lane in Arlington were evacuated early Friday morning as Arlington police dealt with a hostage situation.
Sgt. Christopher Cook with the Arlington Police Department says two 911 calls related to this incident came to police departments in Arlington and Pantego.
Cook said around 1 a.m., a neighbor called 911 after they heard a young woman outside the home crying out for help. At the same time, Cook said Pantego received a 911 call from another woman who escaped from the home and said a young woman was assaulted inside and needed help.
When officers arrived on the scene, the young woman and a young man were inside the house and would not leave the residence to talk to police officers.
Investigators said they believe the young woman was being held against her will inside the home and initiated hostage procedures.
Arlington SWAT units and other police officers are on scene and say that attempts to communicate with the people inside the home have been unsuccessful in the last few hours.
Cook said Arlington police believe there could be some weapons inside the house.
The witness to the alleged assault, who also contacted 911 in Pantego, is on scene with investigators to help provide more information about the young man and young woman. Cook said police are currently unsure of the exact relationship between the young man and young woman.
NBC 5's Keaton Fox saw families with small children evacuated away from the scene.
Cook says while some homes in the area have been evacuated, all residents on Windy Pine Lane in Arlington should stay inside.
Arlington ISD says transportation for students that live on Windy Pine will be provided once the situation is resolved.
NBC 5 has crews on the scene gathering more information. As this is a developing story, details may change as we receive more information.
