Dozens of Arlington police vehicles could be seen around a mile-and-a-half from the AT&T Stadium.
A Swat team and a huge number of armed police have responded to a incident just more than a mile from where England kick off their World Cup campaign.
Dozens of Arlington Police vehicles could be seen stationed on West Division Street in the Texas city on Monday, a short drive from the AT&T Stadium where the Three Lions take on Croatia in two days’ time.
An officer at the scene described the alleged incident as “pretty serious”, with a weapon brandished by a suspect.
Police snipers, an armoured BearCat vehicle and police drones were used at the scene, with a huge number of officers sent to the area.
A spokeswoman for the Arlington Police Department said the force were responding to a domestic dispute between a male and female at their home address.
She added: “The female resident was barricaded inside the home with additional occupants.
“The report shows that a weapon was produced but no injuries were reported. The suspect is now in custody and the investigation is ongoing.”
There is no indication the incident was connected to the World Cup or posed any threat to the tournament or its venues.
