"On June 1st, at about 7:00 AM, APD officers were called to assist DPS units who were in a pursuit with a vehicle.
The pursuit started north of the city and headed south into the city limits. The suspect drove to a residence in the 3300 block of North Bolton, exited the vehicle and went inside.
The suspect was identified as Jerry Hernandez Rodriguez a 47 year old male. Rodriguez was found to have a parole warrant and claimed to be armed with a weapon. Rodriguez refused to come out of the residence so APD SWAT and Negotiators were called to the scene.
