Officers learned Cahill Jr. was possibly in possession of long guns and say he refused to leave the building. While speaking with Cahill Jr. over the phone, police say it was apparent he was intoxicated.

Area roads were closed as a precaution, however, they were reopened after police said they reassessed their response. Officers cleared the scene and continued to monitor the location until search and arrest warrants were obtained.
