Officers are waiting to enter a burned out apartment in Modesto, where a suspect accused of killing a deputy and another man was holed up.

The violence began Thursday morning when a Stanislaus County Sheriff's Deputy and a locksmith were killed while attempting to server an eviction notice.

SWAT was called to the scene and a fire broke out at the apartment while they were standing by.

No contact was made with the suspect, so it's not clear if he was inside at the time of the fire.

Officers are waiting for the building to be cleared by fire officials before they can enter and search for the suspect.
