       Authorities said they found a man at his home and attempted to apprehend him but he “refused to surrender and barricaded himself in the home.”

       Around 5:40 p.m. Tuesday, police said, the man fired “several rounds at officers” but “no officers have discharged their weapon in this incident,” according to a statement.

       Residents who couldn’t leave their homes had been asked to “shelter in place.”

       The incident occurred near Alexandria City High School, which is closed for the Thanksgiving holiday.
