Dayton police initially responded to reports of a domestic violence incident in the 600 block of Walton Avenue around 12:20 p.m. Tuesday.

News Center 7 crews on scene heard the SWAT team call for someone to come out of the home.

Over the course of seven hours, officers used various tactics to try to get someone outside.

After the sun went down, officers moved in on the house, and News Center 7 crews heard an officer say that the home was clear.

A Montgomery County dispatch supervisor said call notes from the scene do not indicate that anyone was arrested.
