Once there, they encountered the suspect, armed with a gun, in a hallway inside one of the apartment buildings. He then"confronted" officers, and one officer fired their department-issued weapon, Burris said. However, the man was not hit by gunfire. He was later taken into custody.The officer who fired their weapon was placed on administrative leave, Burris said.At 7:01 a.m., IMPD said in a Tweet that residents should expect officers to remain at the scene for another few hours.
