The Bay County Sheriff's Office confirmed with ABC News that there is an active shooter on Beck Avenue in the St. Andrews area of Bay County, which is in Panama City.

The suspect has been identified by deputies as 49-year-old Kevin Robert Holroyd. Deputies say he was barricaded inside his apartment at the Briarwood apartment complex Tuesday morning.
