The Ramapo Police Department says an officer had to go in a house without backup Friday to deal with a barricade situation.
It happened around 1 p.m. in Northeast Ramapo.
Police say they received a call about a man who had barricaded himself in a room with two large kitchen knives after a fight at home.
The first officer there went in right away and was able to cuff the man after a little struggle.
The man was taken to the hospital for a mental evaluation.
Police say no one was hurt in the incident.
Ramapo police say it's a good example of what officers do on volatile mental health calls.
