Police are working to resolve an armed standoff this evening in the 100 block of North Brighton. Brighton is closed from St. John to Scarritt.

Just before 5 p.m. on Sunday, June 13, Kansas City Police Department (KCPD) officers responded on a shooting at 10th and Hardesty.

A male victim was shot and transported to the hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries.

The investigation into that shooting then led officers to a residence in the 100 block of North Brighton. Believing the aggravated assault suspect may be inside of the residence, an Operation 100 – or armed standoff – was called.

“Tactical officers and negotiators have responded to the scene and are actively working to resolve this situation peacefully,” KCPD spokesperson Leslie Foreman said.

Update: Around 9 p.m. officers cleared the residence and determined the suspect was not inside.

There was one person who came out of the residence who was detained but was not the suspect they were looking for, according to KCPD. Detectives are still searching for the original suspect.
