AZUSA >> A four-hour SWAT stand-off at an Azusa condominium came to an end Sunday after authorities found the suspect dead.

Few details were initially available regarding the stand-off, which began shortly after 3 p.m. in the 800 block of Pepper Tree Drive, just east of Azusa Pacific University.

Initial reports and police radio traffic indicated a suspect had fled from police before breaking into a nearby home.

Police then received information that there may be a shotgun stored inside the home where the suspect was believed to be holed-up.

Officials evacuated surrounding homes, including those along the south side of Silver Maple Drive, and took tactical positions. Via Twitter, police asked people to refrain from posting photos of officers moving into position.

Police and news helicopters circled overhead as officials made continuous loudspeaker announcements into the home.

The suspect had reportedly suffered a cut to his arm while fleeing police, and was spotted unresponsive inside the condo.

Paramedics pronounced the suspect dead about 7:15 p.m., Los Angeles County Fire Department Dispatch Supervisor Michael Pittman said.

No description of the dead man was available, and no further details were released.
