The San Jose Police Department told KTVU that officers responded just after 9:05 a.m. to the 1800 block of Naples Drive on reports of a “disturbance involving a weapon.”

The SJPD said a preliminary investigation revealed the suspect assaulted his neighbor with the machete before fleeing back into his home and refusing orders from police to come back out.
