Ricky Jo Wayne Kilmer turned himself in to police after holding them at bay for several hours, officials said.
The standoff began after fire investigators tried to serve an arrest warrant on Kilmer for the Dec. 3, 2003, fire at the Whitby Court Apartments, which investigators said happened during the manufacture of methamphetamine, said Oklahoma City fire Maj. Brian Stanaland.
Kilmer was initially arrested a few days after the fire, but subsequently failed to make a court appearance on charges of first-degree arson charge and manufacturing methamphetamine, Stanaland said.
''Fire investigators began pursuing him and that led them to a trailer park on Council Road,'' Stanaland said. ''They had information from witnesses that there may be a gun inside and they backed away and called police.''
Officers evacuated nearby residences.
There were no reports of injuries.
