Police say Andres barricaded himself inside the home and after over an hour of attempted negotiations, officers forced their way into the home, and Andres was taken into custody without further incident.
Andres was arrested for felony elder abuse, with an enhancement due to the victim's age, and a probation violation. Andres was booked at the San Luis Obispo County jail.
