A Waupun man faces charges after barricading himself in his home Sunday.   Waupun police were called to the 600 block of Morse Street around 8:15 p.m. Sunday for a report of a suicidal man who possibly was armed. Waupun police chief Dale Heeringa says the 32 year old man was intoxicated and had barricaded himself in a bathroom with a hand gun.  After negotiating over the phone the man eventually surrendered without incident.  Heeringa says before officers arrived the man’s 29 year old girlfriend was involved in a crash a short distance from the home.  She was arrested for drunken driving.
