Police, including special weapons and canine units, cordoned off the area about 6:45 p.m. after the man's wife said he was loading the rifle and also had pistols, Sgt. Don Player said in a news release.

The first officers to arrive took the woman, with facial injuries and unable to respond due to her panic, from the front yard to safety and summoned medical help.

Police evacuated nearby homes and closed streets before entering the home and disarming the man, said to be a veteran of the Vietnam War.

The man's name and address were withheld.
