BONITA, Calif. (KGTV) - A nine hour standoff in Bonita has finally come to an end.
Deputies have taken 37-year-old James Gilbert, who was wanted for a domestic violence incident, into custody.
He has been booked into San Diego Central Jail on charges of making threats with a weapon, making terrorist threats and resisting arrest.
Gilbert refused to come out of the home for hours.
A San Diego Sheriff's Department SWAT team brought in two BearCats, made multiple flyovers with a helicopter and even called in a bomb squad.
Two blocks of Allen School lane were blocked off all day due to the incident.

Children left the campuses safely after school let out.
