Police in Stamford, Connecticut, responded to a situation involving a barricaded individual at a home on Oaklawn Avenue, near Fairfield Memorial Park. Law enforcement, including canine units and an armored vehicle, were deployed to the scene, and reporters were moved back for safety reasons.

Authorities confirmed the residence was recently under foreclosure but have not linked this to the current incident. Police have stated that neighbors and the public are not in danger as the situation continues to unfold.

Police on scene of barricaded person in Stamford home

One new this afternoon, a large police presence in Stamford near Oaklawn Ave and Dartley St. News 12 Connecticut's John Craven is on the scene for us now and has the latest. John, what can you tell us? Yeah, as you mentioned, a very large police presence out here. Just to give you an idea, we are by Fairfield Memorial Park in Stamford. I'm going to step out of the way so you can get a better sense of what is going on. Police tell us that there is a person barricaded inside a home at 263 Oaklawn Ave. We are told through court records that that house was recently put under foreclosure. There is no word from police about whether that has anything to do with the incident that they are responding to here, but we have canine dogs out here. You can see that there is an armored bear cat, but at this point, police are telling us that neighbors are not in any danger. We're going to pull back out here. Now, while that may be the case, police have actually pulled us back several times from closer to the scene in order to be away from the line of sight. So take that for what you will, but as of this point, police are saying that this is a barricaded subject at 263 Oaklawn Ave. here in Stamford. They are, however, insisting at this point that there is no danger to the public. We'll keep you updated. That's the latest here in Stamford. John Craven, News 12 Connecticut. All right, John, thanks for staying on top of this developing story.
