Oakland police are currently responding to a barricaded suspect in the 2400 block of Monticello Avenue.

Police got a call around 5 p.m. about a person being inside a home with a gun.

Officials surrounded the perimeter and have reportedly used a loudspeaker to tell the person inside the home to walk out the front door with their hands up in the air but have not gotten a response.

Neighbors say a woman lives in the house and they claim she has been using a BB gun to shoot neighboring homes and cars, however, police have not confirmed that.
