Residents awoken by suspect during attempted robbery

Madison police arrested Xavier Garner, 33, in connection to an attempted residential burglary on the 200 block of West Gilman Street that happened early Saturday morning, according to a MPD incident report.

All tenants were able to secure themselves in their bedrooms until the police arrived at the scene, MPD Sgt. Jeffrey Felt wrote in the report.

Officers established a perimeter around the residence and located Garner, who had retreated into a vacant bedroom. Garner originally resisted arrest but was ultimately taken into custody.

Police charged Garner with attempted burglary and resisting arrest, among other charges, according to the report.
