SHELBY COUNTY, Tenn. — UPDATE: 1:30PM: From the Shelby County Sheriff's Office:

"A 13-hour barricade situation has ended peacefully. The suspect, Marcus Boyd, 49, has surrendered to law enforcement and has been detained without incident. SWAT has cleared the house on Stable Run Drive. Detectives are continuing their investigation."

Deputies with the Shelby County Sheriff's Office have evacuated homes near what they describe as a “barricade situation.”

Just before 2am, the Shelby County Sheriff's Office tweeted that someone, possibly armed with a weapon, is barricaded inside a home on Stable Run Drive. They did not give the address, but the map they attached with the tweet showed a section of Stable Run Drive between Pisgah Forest Lane and Hamilton Farms Drive, east of Cordova.

SCSO is asking for people to avoid that area until “the situation” is resolved.
