Apartment situation in Seneca

Law enforcement has converged on a Seneca apartment complex where Sheriff Mike Crenshaw says officers this morning attempted to serve an eviction notice, but without success.  Crenshaw says the man has barricaded himself in a bedroom in one of the units at Crescent Pointe on S. Oak Street.  And, because the individual is a former county deputy, the state police have arrived to take over the operation, with the hope that lines of communication can be opened and the man talked into coming out.  No shots have been fired.  No one is hurt.  The situation started around 10 this morning.
