SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – A woman barricaded herself in an apartment unit in the Nestor area Wednesday night, prompting a response from the San Diego Police Department’s SWAT and Emergency Negotiations team.
SDPD officials said the department received multiple calls from people just before 7 p.m. who reported that a female tenant was stabbing another resident's door and pointing her knife at other residents at an apartment complex in the 1100 block of Nestor Way.
When officers arrived, the woman — wanted for assault with a deadly weapon — barricaded herself in her unit and refused to come out. SDPD’s SWAT officers were eventually deployed to the scene, but despite callouts and flashbangs, the woman did not surrender.
At around 12:30 a.m. Thursday, officers were able to resolve the situation.
SDPD officials were expected to release additional information later Thursday morning.
