More than 20 police officers rushed an apartment near Drake University yesterday afternoon following a standoff that had lasted most of the day. A work-release inmate, Donald Fessler, was holed up in one of the unit, and his refusal to come out eventually led to police firing tear gas into the unit where they thought he was along with several neighbors. Because of that, the neighbors are being helped by Red Cross -- their unit are uninhabitable until the windows are repaired and the damage from the tear gas cannisters cleaned up.
