Suspect in Turner standoff surrenders after firing shots

A standoff in the 900 block of South 55th Street ended peacefully without injury, according to Kansas City, Kan., police.

Police, after arriving at the scene and hearing the gunfire, took cover and continued to communicate with the suspect for almost an hour, the spokesman said.

Officers were able to convince the suspect to put his weapon down, and he surrendered and was taken into custody without injury, according to the police spokesman.
