Any update as to why there was a heavy police presence with multiple SWAT vehicles late last night around the Greenbriar Shopping Center?

Man with AR15 held up in house, police called in swat, negotiator, snipers. Not sure why- sounds like it was PTSD of some kind. Don't know what the outcome, went to bed. Heard all over scanner

This was three houses down from me. They kept calling over loudspeaker for him to answer phone and then turned sirens on every 5-10 minutes until 4am. Made for a rough workday.

There was a domestic dispute on Pavilion Ln. Someone called the police. The man retreated to the upper story of his house. He did have a gun. The house was totally destroyed ("unlivable"). The police bashed the front door in. Some neighbors thought the man destroyed his house in a rage. Others thought the police might have done it trying to arrest him. Shots were fired into a neighbors roof. The man was shot. The police say it was a suicide.

The police used a megaphone to tell the man to come to the phone (apparently, he didn't). The SWAT team used robots to approach the house, including a large one with a battering ram to break down the door. ("They rolled down the sidewalk, weaving in and out of lamp posts and mailboxes, because the street had zig-zag police cars.")

Got additional information. The bottom line is that the police response was totally appropriate to the situation. The house was destroyed by the man himself (except the front door busted by the police robot). The man had many good qualities, so I won't go into details, but I will say that alcohol was involved. If you're going to get drunk - please sober up someplace away from your firearms and your automobile.
