After waving a gun and threatening officers, he was coaxed outside, burned a rug, and finally surrendered following a 15 minute negotiation with Officer Titus and other units. He was treated for cuts to his right wrist and held on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. Witnesses said he began the rampage after ejecting his sister and had complained of marital problems.
