Wanted Man Escapes Home Surrounded By SWAT

A man being served a felony warrant escaped from police at his home on Sunday despite SWAT teams surrounding and gassing the house in Fremont, Calif.

Just before midnight, patrol officers arrived at the home on the 5600 block of Cello Way to serve 30-year-old Tin Nguyen with a felony no-bail warrant for a drug charge parole violation.

As officers approached the home and tried to serve the warrant, Nguyen ran out the back door and was confronted by additional officers. Nguyen ran back into the home, reports the San Jose Mercury News .

Patrol officers went into the home and found all bedroom doors closed, prompting call in the full SWAT team. The SWAT team arrived just after midnight, searched and eventually gassed the home, but were unable to find Nguyen.

Nguyen surrendered to police the following day.
