Police conducted an extensive search for Nasar Gregory, whom police attempted to find early Friday morning after a report a mother and three children had to escape the apartment they were staying at.

During the ensuing standoff with police, an entire neighborhood was cordoned off as police mitigated the situation.

Gregory is now facing the following charges: Strangulation and suffocation, intimidation of a victim, two counts of physical abuse of a child, battery and disorderly conduct.

There had been concern that Gregory would fail to turn himself in, after comments made by his girlfriend earlier in the weekend. "He's not going to turn himself in. He says he's going to go full force against the police. He'll fight every police officer he has to so it's going to be bad," said his girlfriend Tiffany, to FOX 6 on Friday.

Those concerns were put to rest by Sunday afternoon.
