No one was hit by the bullets.
Scores of police descended on the quiet neighborhood, closing streets as they took up positions around the house.

A .357-caliber hand gun, which was apparently thrown out the window of the house, was recovered at the scene.
Two police officers were taken to North Shore University Hospital for treatment of trauma. They were not seriously hurt.
