Unstable Woman In Standoff With Police In Reseda

LAPD is currently involved in a standoff with a woman in Reseda.  Suspect is armed with a 9mm handgun and is apparently depressed and on meds.  Her sister is in the process of evicting her from the home.  After police were called at 9pm this evening, suspect confronted police at entrance with handgun, then retreated into the home.  Thanks to Samira for the tip and to a police scanner on my Droid phone for more details.  Apparently there is also possibly a suicide note.  This might end badly.

Update: I had to go to bed around 1am, hopefully I can get some info on how this ended.

Update: According to ABC7, this ended peacefully:

RESEDA, Calif. (KABC) — A woman was arrest after a police standoff in Reseda on Tuesday that was apparently sparked when she was being evicted from her home.

Police said the two sisters who lived at a home on the 7300 block of Shirley Avenue got into an argument. It seems one of them was being evicted but refused to leave.

When police arrived at about 7:30 p.m, the sister being evicted grabbed a gun. Police called a SWAT team in, and the woman was eventually taken into custody without incident.

No one was injured in the incident.
