NAMPA — A SWAT team surrounded a house late Sunday night after the shots, according to Nampa Police Lt. Marv Dashiell.
Police were called to a house south of Airport Road, near North Brent Avenue and Oak Street, over a domestic issue.
Dashiell said he was not aware of any injuries as a result of the gunfire. Police shut down roads in the area while they tried to contact the suspect.
“The assumption right now is that he is in the house,” Dashiell said.
No further information was available.

Veronica T. Herrera was supposed to start her first degree murder trial next week in connection with the death of her 2-year-old daughter Nakita last summer — but the trial is now delayed until May.
The 29-year-old Herrera was originally accused of burning the body of her 2-year-old daughter in a burn barrel at her Homedale residence in August. Now she is accused of killing the toddler as well. Herrera is also charged with four counts of felony injury to child.
Herrera is now set to begin her jury trial May 14 in front of 3rd District Judge Thomas Ryan in Owyhee County. Herrera waived her speedy trial rights in late December so her attorneys could have more time to work on the case.
