A 107-year-old man was killed during a shootout with members of an Arkansas SWAT team Saturday evening.

In a statement to CBS affiliate KTHV-TV in Little Rock, the Pine Bluff Police Department say the incident occurred after officers responded to a disturbance.

Upon arrival, police found an "Aggravated Assault" against two people had occurred. The pair were evacuated from the home for their own safety, according to The Associated Press. Officers approached a bedroom to look for the 107-year-old, Monroe Isadore.

Police say that when they approached the bedroom where Isadore was hiding and announced their presence, he shot at them. Backup was called in, as well as a SWAT team, and further negotiations failed to get Isadore to turn himself in, according to police.
