Police believe two others are inside the home, but say they are only interested in one suspect.

Authorities blocked off a number of surrounding streets and asked the public to avoid the area.

The Michigan State Police were unsuccessful at establishing phone communication with the suspect on Saturday evening.

They say they are taking extreme caution in this situation and the negotiations could take a long time.
