Armed stand-off in South Carolina, cop barricades himself in home An armed Charleston, South Carolina police officer threatening self-harm barricaded himself in a home following a domestic dispute. More than 50 police officers, including Sheriff's Office Negotiators and a SWAT team, were on scene, local media reported.

Law enforcement began arriving at the scene after receiving the initial phone call at 7:53 a.m., surrounding the home. The officer was alone inside the home and refusing to come out. The Charleston County Sheriff’s Office tried to contact him via phone and PA, however had not made contact, WCBD reported. Neighbors in the Autumn Chase subdivision were initially put on lockdown, but have since been evacuated, deputies told WCSC. The street in front of the home has been reopened A police chaplain and county forensics services were at the location, the Post and Courier’s Prentiss Findlay tweeted. Police have not released the name of the officer but said he has been on the force since 2003. ----------------------------------- Coincidence or reaction to fellow police officer being charged with murder?
