When police approached the bedroom door where Isadore was holed up, he fired one shot through the door. No one was hit.
The SWAT team was called in and negotiations with Isadore began.
The SWAT team confirmed that Isadore was armed with a handgun by inserting a camera into the bedroom through a window.
After negotiations were unsuccessful, the SWAT team pumped gas in the room from outside the bedroom window, hoping that Isadore would surrender peacefully.
Instead, Isador fired more shots at a SWAT entry team, who threw a "distraction device" into the room after breaching the door.
Isadore continued shooting at the entry team, who finally shot and killed him.
Local police said that the investigation is ongoing, but provided no further details.
SWAT* - "Special Weapons And Tactics" is a commonly used proper name for law enforcement units, which use military-style light weapons and specialized tactics in high-risk operations that fall outside of the capabilities of regular, uniformed police.
