Just saw this on the news. Hopefully McBride's and all officers involved come out OK.

Austin police are in a standoff with man who may be barricaded inside a gun shop with what is described as one of the 'largest firearms inventories in the nation.'
Austin police officers responded to an alarm McBride's Gun Shop around 4:00am this morning found guns and weapons strewn about.
The officers were attempting to determine if anyone was inside the gun shop when the lights went out inside the building.
Austin Police spokesman Joe Muñoz says that a later call from the alarm company reported that motion sensors from the business had picked up some sort of movement.
Police are telling motorists to avoid the area because the police activity has closed off streets in the area.
