On Thursday evening, police established a presence in the 700 block of Locust Street while searching for James Wesley Key, the suspect in an officer-involved shooting. Numerous officials and resources are on the scene, including the APD SWAT Bearcat unit, Mobile Command Center and drones.
Officials with the Abilene Police Department confirmed to KTAB/KRBC on scene that multiple rounds of gas were deployed into the house, and just after 9:00 p.m. multiple gunshots were fired from inside the home. It is not known who fired those shots. No one was hit by the gunfire and no officers fired their weapons.
