A Woodland man was arrested Monday in connection to shooting at his roommate and barricading inside a home for several hours, police said.

Officers were called about 2:40 a.m. to the 1000 block of Clover Street for a shooting. The roommate was not wounded but the suspect remained inside the home and was armed, according to a news release from the Woodland Police Department.

SWAT officers, K-9s and officers using drones arrived to the scene and attempted to coax the suspect out of the home, police said. They made several announcements asking the man to surrender. Several hours later, the man exited the home and was apprehended.

The 33-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, having a firearm as a felon and having ammunition as a felon, police said.

The trial of a man accused of holding down a teenage boy so colleagues could rape and abuse him at a New Hampshire youth center in the 1990s is set to begin Tuesday. It's the second criminal trial to stem from a broad 2019 investigation into historic abuse at the Sununu Youth Services Center in Manchester. Bradley Asbury, now age 70, is among nine men who worked at the Manchester center or an associated facility in Concord who are facing criminal charges.

A group of teens is accused of committing an anti-Asian hate crime in Brooklyn, New York City, after allegedly hurling whipped cream at an Asian couple while making mocking gestures at them last month. The couple, both aged 29, were walking in the area when the group of four teens allegedly approached them, pulled back the corners of their eyes — mimicking the couple's physical features — and yelled "ni hao" (Chinese for "hello"). One of the teens allegedly sprayed whipped cream from a can into another girl's hand, who then flung it at the victims.
