As a result of negotiations between the Ministry of Internal Affairs representatives and the attacker, Shalva Melikishvili gradually released all the hostages, after which the law enforcers arrested him on the spot as an accused. No one was injured in the incident.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs launched an investigation against him on charges of assault, kidnapping for terrorist purposes, and illegal purchase, storage, and carrying of ammunition.
