A man wanted on suspicion of a domestic violence assault in Redwood City early Thursday morning refused to come out of the home where it occurred, prompting an hourslong standoff that continued throughout the day, police said.
Officers responded at about 2 a.m. to a report from a woman saying she was the victim of a domestic violence assault at a home on the 700 block of Windsor Way, according to police.
The victim talked to police in front of the residence and she said the male suspect was still inside the home. She was then taken to a hospital and was later released, police said.
Officers contacted the suspect by phone but he refused to leave the home. Authorities surrounded the home and continued to try to negotiate with him but he refused to communicate with officers, police said.
Police issued a shelter in place order for other residents in the area and recommended a voluntary evacuation order for some.
Madison Avenue is closed at Alameda de las Pulgas and Upton Street, and Vera Avenue was closed at Windsor Way as a result of the standoff, according to police.
