A man who reportedly shot firearms in the garage of a home in Rancho Bernardo and prompted SWAT to respond Saturday has been taken into custody after an hours-long standoff.
The shooting was reported by the girlfriend of the man at around 8:36 a.m. on the 17000 Robinia Ct., the San Diego Police Department said.
"The family self-evacuated from the house, and officers responded. Initial officers heard more gunshots from inside the house and SWAT was called," said SDPD Lt. Casey Gini.
SDPD said no one was in immediate danger as everyone nearby, including neighbors, was safely evacuated.
