CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. — A man who set off an "emergency shelter-in-place" after fleeing from a SWAT standoff in Clayton County is now in custody, police say.
As a result, Clayton County Police said the shelter in place has been lifted.
Around 4 p.m. on Sunday, officers were called to the home of 41-year-old Jeremiah Rose near Tara Glynn Drive who was said to be "experiencing a mental crisis," police said.
They said Rose refused to come out of the home and was upset about several out-of-state warrants. A SWAT team was surrounding the home earlier and believed the suspect was barricaded inside.
Ambulance and fire crews, along with the Clayton County Sheriff's Office, Clayton County Police, and SWAT were all at the scene throughout Monday morning.
Officers were told Rose has "several guns and a long gun" inside the home and he refused to come out.
Around 9 a.m. on Monday, police issued a warning, saying that Rose was "now on foot and is considered to be armed and dangerous."
Just after 10 a.m., the shelter-in-place was expanded to the area of Walden Landing Apartments, Madison Heights Apartments and the Home Depot in Lovejoy due to gunfire heard.
Rose had a warrant for failure to appear for an aggravated assault case with a weapon (three counts) out of Louisiana.
