Rodrick Brumfield<\/strong>, who had been hiding in the attic, surrendered about noon and was turned over to Ventura County sheriff’s personnel, said Deputy Guillermina Saldana of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Information Bureau.<\/p>\n

Brumfield, a Los Angeles area resident, was wanted on a $1-million warrant for a home invasion robbery that occurred in the city of Camarillo, according to Sgt. Denise Sliva of the Ventura County Sheriff\u2019s Department.<\/p>\n

Sliva said Ventura County deputies went to Lancaster Friday morning to serve an arrest warrant for Brumfield along with a search warrant for the residence on the 43600 block of Park Avenue.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce they got there, they determined the suspect was barricaded upstairs, possibly armed,\u201d she said. \u201cThey contacted the L.A. County SWAT team and they came out and used tear gas; after that the suspect surrendered.\u201d<\/p>\n

No injuries were reported during the standoff.<\/p>\n
