Video showed at least seven sheriff’s department patrol SUVs positioned on a street corner outside a home. More SUVs and a sheriff’s department helicopter were on a field in a nearby park.

Details about what led to the standoff were not immediately available.

James Foster Elementary School and Arroyo Seco Junior High School were locked down. Saugus High School was on a soft lockdown.
