Elk Grove police officers called out a SWAT team and canine unit to the 8700 block of Corbally Court Wednesday afternoon and arrested a young man on an outstanding felony warrant.
The incident caused the evacuation of at least one neighboring household and the closure of several streets in the residential area near where Sheldon Road meets Freesia Drive.
Police say Brandon Gutierrez, 21, was wanted for weapons possession and probation violation, and retreated into his house when officers arrived at about 1:00 p.m. Elk Grove Police Department spokesperson Chris Trim said officers called for extra backup after yells and phone calls to the house produced no response.
