Construction worker Reed Gillette described hearing gunfire.
"It was one man -- I didn't see the man - I heard the gunfire. So when I came out, it was possibly 10 to 12 rounds, and then he went back inside and hasn't come back out," Gillette said.
Riverside County Sheriff's Department deputies surrounded the home to try to bring the standoff to a peaceful end. At one point, officials were seen firing something into the home, possibly smoke grenades.

By 9 p.m., officials announced the barricade had ended with the suspect's surrender.
No injuries were reported.
