SCHILLER PARK, Ill. (WLS) -- Schiller Park police said a barricade situation in the 3700 block of Ruby Street has ended.



A lockdown had been put in place for the neighborhood after an armed man barricaded himself inside of a home.



Police said the incident stemmed from a domestic dispute after the suspect threatened a family member with a gun.



People were asked to avoid the area and to stay inside while they investigated.



"Nobody else is at risk right now we have the area locked down right now and we're just trying to get the subject to come out peacefully," said Lt. Jim Scheib of the Schiller Park Police Department had told new media.


Scheib said the suspect was alone inside of the home.
