South Side Standoff Ends Peacefully

Columbus police say a man held officers at bay at his South side home last night for the second time in the last five months. 33-year-old Robert Ruff is hospitalized in stable condition after threatening to take his own life inside of his Lawrence Drive home. Police say he made similar threats last October.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
