SWAT called for armed man in Gresham home
CHICAGO - An armed man barricaded himself inside a home Sunday in Gresham on the South Side.
Officers responded to a call of shots fired about 10 a.m. in the 8100 block of South Sangamon Street, where allegedly a man with a gun fired multiple times from a second floor window, Chicago police said.
Once on scene, officers saw the man waving a shotgun out the window and called the SWAT team.
