The suspect, William Hardison Sr., shot at deputies trying to serve an eviction notice, resulting in a standoff that lasted about 6½ hours.

    Details are still scant, but…

“I mean, he had a lot of ammunition in that house, and certainly … all of us were strapped, you know, with ammunition, and we were calling for additional ammunition,” Kraus said. “Like I said, we tried to give him every opportunity to come out.”

    …I’ll go way out on a limb and suggest that this could’ve been handled better.

    Normally I would say wait until he is out for groceries - his local grocer doesn’t have a lot of ammunition. Though this guy seems to be the kind of guy to have a horde of food, and I don’t think anyone would want him laying suppressive fire on the neighborhood until he runs out.
