BRIEFLY MAN IN CUSTODY AFTER HOME SIEGE.

THOUSAND OAKS - A 32-year-old man, who sheriff's deputies said was armed and feared someone was trying to harm him, was taken into custody Sunday after an 11-hour siege at his home.

Authorities said they got a call about a domestic disturbance in the house on the 400 block of Larch Crest Drive around 9 p.m. Saturday from a caller who left before deputies arrived.

Deputies said they evacuated homes around the man's house while negotiators spent hours trying to calm his fears that a prison gang and others wanted to harm him.

After entering the house and searching it systematically, members of a SWAT team found the man in the attic with a rifle, and they took him into custody around 7:45 a.m. Sunday, deputies wrote in a report. Other guns were found in the garage.
