A bizarrely dressed suspect is suspected of killing a 92-year-old millionaire developer inside his Southern California beachfront home, then barricading inside for hours during a SWAT standoff, according to authorities.
Police in Hermosa Beach say officers were called to a home in the 500 block of The Strand just after 12:30 p.m. Saturday for a welfare check after the elderly resident had not been seen for several days.
What began as a routine call quickly escalated when officers entered the home with a property manager and encountered an uncooperative individual inside who claimed to be armed and barricaded inside, according to the Hermosa Beach Police Department.
SWAT teams from multiple agencies and crisis negotiators worked for hours to secure a peaceful surrender. The suspect was taken into custody roughly seven hours after the initial call.
