The suspect, William Hardison Sr., shot at deputies trying to serve an eviction notice, resulting in a standoff that lasted about 6½ hours.

      But it was 6.5 hours, so just slightly over 11 officers per hour. Maybe they took turns?.. or they had a shift change in the middle, so that would be two shifts.

      Well, even with spare rounds in the trunk, they can only carry so much ammunition before they run out.

      I feel incredibly sorry for any pets in the neighborhood :(
