Police activity in Vallejo has led to a request by authorities for residents near Fairmont Park to stay inside until further notice Tuesday afternoon.

The activity was reportedly in connection with a barricaded suspect, but Vallejo police have not provided confirmation.

A post on X by the @AlertSolano account shortly after 2 p.m. advised "all residents within a 1/4 mile of the 200 block of Viewmont Ave." to stay inside until further notice due to the unspecified police activity.
