School buses rerouted because of standoff

A man holed up in his home, keeping Metro Police at bay, caused school buses en route to Guinn Middle School today to take an alternate route.

However, classes went on as scheduled at 8:15 a.m. as police used one of the classrooms as a command post.

Students arriving at the school at 4150 S. Torrey Pines Drive were allowed into the cafeteria. Ordinarily, they stay outside the school until 7:30 a.m.

The man had been holding off police for about 12 hours. As of early today he had not been taken into custody.
