Officials identified the man as 35-year-old Roosevelt Permenter. Also taken into custody was 35-year-old Kaishonta Thomas.
Permenter and Thomas face charges including aggravated assault with a firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, identity fraud, filing false documents for real/personal property and grand theft, BSO officials said.
A woman at the scene who said she was a relative of a person inside the home claimed the standoff was retaliation by deputies for a federal lawsuit filed in August against Sheriff Gregory Tony and others at BSO.
