Police Take into Custody Parolee who Barricaded Himself

A parolee who allegedly assaulted his mother and then barricaded himself in their Long Beach residence was taken into custody early today, police said.

James Carrillo, 22, was booked on suspicion of various offenses, including making criminal threats and false imprisonment, and he was also held on a parole violation, said Nancy Pratt of the Long Beach Police Department.

His mother, who was not identified, was treated at the scene for injuries that were not life-threatening, Pratt said.

Police went to the residence in the 6000 block of Linden Avenue that the pair shared about 11:15 p.m. Thursday on a report of a "domestic situation where a woman was assaulted," Pratt said.

"When the suspect refused to comply with officers, SWAT was activated," she said.

After a standoff, Carrillo was taken into custody early this morning, Pratt said.
