LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — One person was taken into custody "without incident" after a SWAT standoff in the northeast Las Vegas Valley on Thursday.

As of 12:13 p.m., Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officials said an arrest had been made in the barricade that began at approximately 7:40 a.m.

Officers spent hours outside a residence in the 3400 block of Goldyke Street, near Las Vegas and Lamb boulevards, negotiating with an individual who was "refusing to exit" the residence after a reported shooting.

As of Thursday morning, police said no injuries were reported in connection with the incident.

Las Vegas police officials say their investigation is ongoing. A Channel 13 crew is on scene awaiting additional information from authorities.
