MMA fighter "Mayhem" Miller live-tweets SWAT stand-off

MISSION VIEJO, Calif. - Mixed martial arts fighter Jason "Mayhem" Miller has surrendered after live-tweeting a stand-off with Orange County Sheriff's deputies attempting to serve him with an arrest warrant for domestic violence and stalking, reports CBS Los Angeles.

At 12:11 p.m. on the West coast, Miller tweeted: "I WISH YOU NO HARM. I respect the Police, but this is overkill, for something that would be settled with one piece of paperwork."

Miller even tweeted his address, telling followers they could come "see this drama unfold."

The sheriff's department is also documenting the apparent stand-off incident on Twitter. At about noon, they tweeted: "SWAT UPDATE - Deputies attempted to serve arrest warrant on suspect who is barricaded. No known hostages."

According to the station, Miller, 33, was arrested in Aug. 2012 after he allegedly burglarized a Mission Viejo church and set off the building's fire extinguishers.
