Five Mile Rd.The injured victim expressed that they wished to speak with law enforcement. Officers believe the victim was attacked by 35-year-old Christian Wood, who is also said to have fired a gun inside the home where the conflict occurred.An ACSO news release goes on to state that Wood also pointed the firearm at the victim and that the suspect "was reportedly under the influence at the time."The victim and the suspect know each other, according to police.Officers later located the suspect at a home in the 9800 block of W. Fox Ridge Dr. There, police say Wood refused to leave the residence when commanded by officers to do so.While speaking with the Ada County Crisis Negotiations Team, Wood is said to have made suggestions that he would further defy law enforcement commands and that ACSO deputies would have to use lethal force to take him into custody.After learning of potential firearms inside the home, an Ada County SWAT team was requested and arrived on the scene shortly thereafter.After tense negotiations, the suspect agreed to exit the home.
