Kimberly Brown was relaxing in her west Fayetteville apartment with some television Friday night when she smelled smoke and saw firetrucks come through the gate into the complex's parking lot.
In the next 30 minutes, she heard pounding footsteps, men banging on doors, water spraying the outside of her apartment building and gunfire.
Brown's upstairs neighbor, Fort Bragg Army Staff Sgt. Joshua Paul Eisenhauer, was involved in a shootout and standoff with police. He ended up critically injured and charged with 30 felonies, including 15 counts of attempted first-degree murder.
Two police officers suffered minor injuries. One was treated at the scene, the other at Cape Fear Valley Medical Center, police said.
And Brown spent the night in a Fayetteville fire station.
The incident started about 10 p.m. Friday when someone reported a fire at Austin Creek Apartments on Capeharbor Court, which is off 71st School Road between Raeford Road and Cliffdale Road, the Police Department said.
Brown said firefighters knocked on residents' doors, asking if they had a fire in their units.
She saw two go up to the third floor, she said, and then heard them talking to Eisenhauer, asking him to open the door.
He refused, Brown said.

Man Killed by Police Officer Struggled With PTSD
The Arizona Senator, the man who wanted to be President, none other than John McCain said, "maybe you need this in New Jersey, but we don't need this in Arizona" when asked why he as against the suicide prevention bill. You'd think that as a Senator, he'd be very aware of what veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan come home with. It isn't just suicides but crimes committed because they didn't get the help they needed. Jeremiah Pulaski knew how to use a weapon but the man he shot was not killed, suggesting he didn't want to kill him. The man he shot was still shot over some words said. Pulaski's family and friends are left stunned by what happened as they prepare for a funeral that didn't need to happen. Police officers are dealing with a shooting that didn't need to happen.

"Put it down! Put it down! Put it down!" deputies screamed outside the condo at 760 Normandy P.
But Dallas Adkins, Jr., 59, fired his rifle at them and the bullet hit a ballistic shield, investigators said. The two deputies shot back several times.
"Deputies knocked on the door, and he answered the door with a weapon in his hand," sheriff's spokeswoman Teri Barbera said.
It is unclear where Adkins shot from, deputies said. The window next to his door was blown out.
Neighbors described him as a gentleman loner who helped ladies with their grocery bags and called men "Sir." Adkins rented a one-bedroom condominium at Kings Point for about a year and worked at a nearby Publix grocery store. In Colorado, where he grew up, Adkins volunteered for about 20 years as a firefighter in Golden, a suburb of Denver. He gave it up about 10 years ago, officials there said.
