A person barricaded himself inside a South Miami-Dade apartment complex, causing a tense confrontation with police officers and a SWAT team.
Around 1:20 p.m., officers — and the Miami-Dade Police Department’s SWAT team — were called to a home near Southwest 138th Road and 260th Street near Naranja, Homestead police told the Miami Herald. It is unclear why the identified person barricaded himself.
A possible negotiator could be heard talking to them, although the conversation was interrupted by short, loud, unidentifiable bangs.
Shortly afterwards, police resumed communication with the barricade via a megaphone.
