**UPDATE — Armed suspect surrenders to SWAT team after 36-hour standoff in Washtenaw County
It's been nearly 27 hours since the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office has been working to bring a barricaded gunman situation on Meadow Drive in Superior Township to a peaceful conclusion -- and there's no end in sight.
At 8 a.m. Thursday police said the suspect remains "barricaded and heavily armed."
And neighbors are supposed to stay out of sight.
"It is important for neighbors to remain vigilant and continue to seek shelter," police said. "Prior to our arrival and while officers have been on scene the subject has fired his weapon multiple times."
No one has been injured, however police equipment has been destroyed.
"We continue our efforts to communicate with the subject to ultimately bring this to a peaceful conclusion," police said in a press release. "Although our subject has communicated, he refuses to put down his weapons and leave his parents property."
This incident began at about 4:30 a.m. yesterday morning when deputies were dispatched after receiving a call from family in the home that their son was suffering a mental health crisis and had assaulted his parents.
The subject was said to be heavily armed, wearing a flak jacket, and had multiple magazines strapped to his body. Although no one was injured reports were also made that the subject had fired his weapon prior to police arrival.
Responding deputies were able to safely evacuate family members from the home, but the subject refused to come out, barricaded himself in his parents' home, and currently remains inside.
