The motel is located near the intersection of Colfax and Yosemite Street. Colfax was closed in both directions at Alton Street while the SWAT operation was going on.
As a result of the police activity, Boston Elementary School was experiencing a delayed start. Administrators said the school was on lockout and would start at 10 a.m.
The motel was also the site of a homicide crime scene investigation from a shooting murder that took place at 1 a.m. in the parking lot. That crime wasn’t related to the standoff, according to authorities.
