One of the first arriving officers reportedly made contact with a man at the home, who responded with gunfire. The officer retreated and suffered a non-gun-related injury, while backup arrived. 

We're told the Combined Area Response Team (C.A.R.T) came shortly afterward and tried negotiating with the unidentified suspect, to no avail. At some point, officials say "the scene deteriorated and devolved into an officer-involved shooting."
