Investigation into a burglary at the site of an August shooting led to a standoff at 84 Victoria Ave., Jamestown, Tuesday afternoon.

At 12:42 p.m. Tuesday, Jamestown police officers were dispatched to 84 Victoria Ave., for a reported burglary in progress. Officers were told there were unknown individuals inside one of the apartments.

The house is the same location of an Aug. 17 shooting that resulted in a man being shot and taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. Police updated the man’s condition Wednesday, saying he is expected to survive.

As part of that investigation, officers executed a search warrant in the upper apartment at 84 Victoria Ave. and a vehicle associated with one of the apartment’s occupants. While searching, detectives reported finding 111.9 grams of methamphetamine, 23.3 grams of cocaine powder, 9.4 grams of crack cocaine, 66.5 grams of fentanyl and a 9mm pistol. There were no charges at the time the search warrant was executed because the occupants of the apartment, identified by police as Kylah Seiberg and Jensen Vazquez, had fled the scene.

As the investigation into the burglary continued, it was determined Seiberg and Vazquez had returned to the residence, now nearly two weeks later. Seiberg was taken into custody fairly quickly by patrol, but Vazquez refused to exit the residence. It was reported that Vazquez had armed himself with a firearm and a portion of the residence was barricaded off, making it difficult to enter the home. The Jamestown Police Department SWAT Team was requested to the scene to assist in the apprehension of Vazquez due to the fact that he currently has a warrant for his arrest out of the United States District Court of Western New York for violating his federal probation. The Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office also responded with their SWAT Team to assist. After several hours and the deployment of chemical munitions in an attempt to get Vazquez to surrender peacefully, he continued to refuse to exit the residence. The Jamestown SWAT Team ultimately made entry into the residence after a search warrant was issued by Jamestown City Court Judge John LaMancuso. Police report Vazquez was located hiding under insulation and floorboards of the attic by SWAT personnel and taken into custody without further incident. Another search of the residence was completed which revealed 65.3 grams of fentanyl in the same area as where Vazquez was apprehended.

Vazquez was taken to the city jail and held until he could be arraigned on charges of five counts of third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, second-degree criminally using drug paraphernalia and and second-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Seiberg was also taken into custody, but only charged with what was found in the search warrant from August 17, 2024. She is being held in the Jamestown City Jail pending her arraignment on charges of second-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, four counts of third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance 3rd, second-degree criminally using drug paraphernalia and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon.

The investigation into the shooting incident and assault from Aug. 17. Any tips can be called in to the Jamestown Police Department at 716-483-7537 or the anonymous tip line at 716-483-8477.
