An Ardmore resident who died in last Wednesdayâs standoff with Winston-Salem police staged a similar standoff in 2007 with Davidson County sheriffâs deputies.
Edwin Joseph Castillo Jr., 34, was killed in an exchange of gunfire with officers, police said. An autopsy conducted at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center showed that Castillo died of a gunshot wound.
During the standoff, Castillo also set a fire at the home at 526 Lockland Ave. where he had barricaded himself. The fire caused extensive damage to the house.
When Castillo was 20, he faced charges in connection with an all-night standoff with Davidson County deputies in July 2007.

A Winston-Salem man died Wednesday in the course of a standoff with police during which he exchanged gunfire with officers and set his house on fire, authorities said.
Police later found a manâs body inside the burned home at 526 Lockland Ave., police Capt. Steven Tollie said in a tweet. Tollie didnât identify the man.
Hours after the incident, smoke lingered in the air of the typically quiet neighborhood of Ardmore, which is only blocks from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.
Officers went to the house around 1 p.m. after they received a report of unknown trouble there, Tollie said.
