 Deputies have been called to the home in the 57,000 block on a welfare check for a man and two children. The police report says that the man threatened to harm the children. Deputies attempted to contact him and learned that he was armed and threatening law enforcement officers. SWAT arrived shortly after midnight and the man barricaded himself in the home and fired his weapon. Other details are still pending, but Elkhart County Homicide and the Indiana State Police are investigating due to the death of the child.
