S.W.A.T. members converge on North Grape Street in Medford on Tuesday after a report of a menacing with a handgun.

Medford police are maintaining a perimeter around a residence in the 400 block of North Grape Street after receiving an earlier report of a menacing with a handgun, authorities said.

“It is believed the suspect is inside a residence, and officers have established a perimeter while actively working to communicate with him,” a Facebook post said after 4 p.m. Tuesday. “The public is advised to avoid the area, as roads are closed to traffic while officers continue their efforts.”

Police said they believed the suspect was still inside the residence as of 5:30 p.m., an updated Facebook post said.

Nearby McLoughlin Middle School was briefly placed into a secure status out of an abundance of caution, the post said. There was no threat to the school.

Police said they would provide more information when it becomes available.

A more than three-hour standoff ended peacefully Tuesday night after a suspect was taken into custody from a residence located in the 400 block of North Grape Street in Medford.

Medford police responded to the location after receiving a 2:30 p.m. report of a menacing with a handgun, authorities said.

“Our officers responded, determined that a crime had occurred and that there was probably cause to arrest a resident here who had fled back into his apartment,” Medford police Lt. Geoff Kirkpatrick said Tuesday following the incident.

The suspect was identified as 31-year-old Adam Hausa, who is in custody and will be lodged in the Jackson County Jail on multiple charges, including menacing with a firearm.

Kirkpatrick said police used a slew of tactics to resolve the situation and utilized noise-diversion charges, an explosion breaching charge and gas rounds, which resulted in the suspect exiting unarmed.

Kirkpatrick said Medford police responded with members of the department’s S.W.A.T. team, crisis negotiation team and drone team.

Nearby McLoughlin Middle School was briefly placed into a secure status out of an abundance of caution, the post said. There was no threat to the school.
