Jesse William Patterson who had barricaded himself inside a manufactured home on Tuscany Drive

Central Oregon'S SWAT team fired smoke bombs through the windows of a southwest Bend home Sunday morning where a dangerous and wanted man was holed up.
For six hours, police were in an intense standoff with Jesse William Patterson, 40, who had barricaded himself inside a manufactured home on Tuscany Drive, off of Brookswood Boulevard. Police and neighbors say it all started after a nasty fight with his wife that sent her to the emergency room of St. Charles Medical Center-Bend.Armored vans filled the streets and officers with serious guns patrolled the sidewalks as the SWAT team made its presence well known in the Fox Hills neighborhood."They (police) grouped up, and I watched them go in, and a few minutes later I heard a few more shots - it must have been smoke bombs," said neighbor Robert Ray.Smoke bombs were sent flying through the front windows of the home in the 61000 block of Tuscany Drive, where Patterson was holed up inside his mother's house.
Neighbors called the police after they say Patterson beat his wife with a gun in the front yard, threatening to kill her."We got information he was armed with a handgun and we tried numerous attempts from about 5 a.m. this morning until just recently at 10 a.m. to try and get him to come out," said Bend Police Lt. Cory Darling. "He would not comply with us. He would not come out."But Patterson,was finally smoked out five hours later, with no bullets fired.The domestic violence allegedly started around 3 a.m. Next-door neighbor Luanna Harrison said she heard it all. "I heard someone scream," Harrison told NewsChannel 21. "So I ran to my window and it's right there, and so you can see into his house, and he was hitting her and stuff. Then she ran around the porch and was banging on our door, so I let her in."Bloodied, with broken bones in her face and barely able to open her eyes, neighbors say Patterson's wife warned police about the gun before she was rushed to the hospital.The Fox Hills manager tells NewsChannel 21, Patterson had been kicked out of the neighborhood for past domestic violence and this time had sneaked back into his mother's house.Jail records show he's a wanted man. With four warrants out for him, Patterson's been in and out of jail five times.Neighbors are now just hoping it's over."I was just like, 'What's going on?'" Robert Ray said. "I thought I lived in a safe neighborhood and this happened right in my backyard basically."
Jesse Patterson is charged with attempted murder, assault and being a felon in possession of two guns, and is being held without bail on numerous arrest and probation violation warrants. His wife was treated for her facial injuries at St. Charles Medical Center-Bend.
