According to a criminal complaint, officers had to kick down the door to enter to locked room, following attempts of knocking and removing the door handle with a drill.

When officers used cameras to scope out the attic, they located the intruder.

The video shows a cluster of cops gathered underneath the entryway to the attic, holding a camera to peer in.

After they ordered the suspect to get out and got no response, they deployed two irritants to force him out.
