SAN JOSE, Calif. (FOX-35) -- A police standoff with a barricaded suspect in San Jose ended Thursday after the man surrendered.

The incident started around 7 a.m. when officers from Santa Clara County's gun violence prevention task force were serving a search warrant at a home on Lantern Way and Singleton Road.

The man then barricaded himself inside the home, prompting the standoff.

Police evacuated several nearby homes due to safety risks while negotiators were brought in. Those residents were later allowed back.

After the man surrendered, officers continued to search the home for evidence.
