Nearly three dozen gunshots rang out in an upscale Connecticut neighborhood amid a tense standoff with police Tuesday afternoon, according to video and reports.
An unknown individual now remains holed up inside a home at Oakland Avenue in Stamford, while police try to communicate with them using a loudspeaker, News12 Connecticut reported.
Wild video shared on X captured the chaos, with roughly 14 shots fired in rapid succession as an officer in the background shouted, “Back up, shots fired!”
Moments later, another barrage of about 20 shots followed.

“Get in your car … Get out of here!” the officer can be heard yelling in the footage.
It’s unclear who fired the shots.
Police had said there was no danger to the public but to avoid Oakland Avenue and Dartley Street as they continue to investigate.
The property — 263 Oaklawn Avenue — is the subject of foreclosure, according to court records, the outlet reported.
