Missouri City police said the friend, Chad Chadwick, refused to come out of his third-floor apartment after a fight with his wife.
After several hours of failed negotiations, SWAT officers barged in and used a Taser gun to get Chadwick under control and handcuffed him at 1 a.m. Wednesday, officials said.
Before he was handcuffed, police said Chadwick punched two officers in the face. They will be OK.
Chadwick was charged with two counts of assault on a peace officer.
