Were at hampden and himalaya. His backyard actually comes out here to himalaya. Thats where the front of the home is. So police have shut down this area. We heard five of the loud bangs and there was a small break i guess in the action, did nott appear to be gunshots, then there were about seven more. We could actually see the sparks coming from the top of the swat vehicle. We dont want to speculate what that is but again it did not sound like the ringing f a gunshot, but police are on the scene and still a very active seen. this all started as a call of a welfare check of an individual potentially suicidal. The man came out and fired a round in the direction of deputies. Another one of those loud bangs coming from the scene just past himalaya where this whole scene has been shut down. Again not a loud sharp piercing sound like a gunshot but a allow load bang, so that makes 13 in total. This whole thing has been going on more than eight hours and this is the first kind of action we hav
