JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KMIZ)

Police shot a person in Jefferson City on Thursday afternoon.

Details about the person's condition were not available, but Missouri State Highway Patrol Sgt. Kyle Green confirmed an officer-involved shooting had occurred in the 800 block of Broadway Street.

MSHP Sgt. Bradley Germann told ABC 17 News that the Division of Drug and Crime Control is on scene to investigate. The Jefferson City Police Department had requested the highway patrol to investigate because the incident involved one of JCPD's officers, Germann said.

Multiple Jefferson City police cruisers and vehicles from other agencies were parked in the area, with tape up and surrounding a building along the street.

ABC 17 News has asked spokespeople for the police department and city government for more details.
