Los Angeles Police Department officers responded to reports of shots fired Thursday afternoon at around 2 p.m. on East 53rd Street in South Los Angeles.
At around 6:15 p.m., authorities revealed that a K-9 unit had been called to the scene for further investigation to sweep the area, though they weren't sure if the suspect was even in the area any longer.
The type of firearm involved was not immediately known.
After several hours, the suspect was taken into custody.
No one was struck by any of the gunfire, and no injuries were reported.
