Southern California Deputies Evacuate Neighborhood, Use Flash Grenades, Battering Rams During 16-Hour Standoff With Empty Home
For 16 grueling hours, Riverside Sheriff’s Deputies kept their guns trained at a home in Southern California, ready to battle it out with a gunman inside.
It was a dangerous scene, they told neighbors, forcing residents to evacuate their homes and forcing them off the block for their safety.
With a helicopter hovering above and an armored car parked outside, deputies used their megaphone to communicate with the armed suspects inside.
