Pair in custody after stand-off on top of Albury's Burvale Motor Inn

Albury police had attended the Young Street property to arrest one of the men about 2pm on Monday, September 4.

They had received a request from Victorian officers to apprehend the 31-year-old man on warrants for domestic violence matters.

It's alleged the wanted man climbed through a skylight and armed himself with a metal pole before making threats to police from the rooftop.

Another man, 33, also went to the roof.

He was not armed and did not make any threats, but had warrants out for his arrest for shoplifting.

"Specialist officers from the Tactical Operations Regional Support group and the Negotiations Unit also attended and negotiated with the 31-year-old man," a police spokeswoman said.

"Shortly after 9pm both men came down from the roof where they were placed under arrest and taken to Albury Police Station."

The 31-year-old man faces additional charges of using an offensive weapon to avoid apprehension.

He could be heard screaming loudly and making threats during the incident.

Police are likely to apply to extradite the man back to Wodonga at some point over the domestic violence matters.

An older man was charged with two counts of shoplifting.

Both men have been refused bail.

They will appeared in Albury Local Court on Tuesday, September 5.
