After a nearly six-hour armed roof standoff with deputies, a man is in custody, the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office said.
It began just after 8 p.m. Sunday when deputies were called to the area of Fairway Drive and Harrison Drive in Dunedin about three "suspicious" men in the neighborhood.
When deputies arrived, they say 18-year-old Myles Abbott ran from them, shooting at nearby people as he did.
The only person hurt was Abbott, who at some point during the incident shot himself in the thigh, investigators said.
Abbott eventually climbed onto the roof of a home in the 1000 block of Michigan Boulevard.
He then pointed a gun at deputies down below, the sheriff's office said.
Deputies say despite numerous attempts to communicate with Abbott, he refused to surrender.
The Pinellas County SWAT Team and a negotiator were called to assist.
Abbott's sister was also brought to the standoff to try to communicate with him, which was unsuccessful, deputies say.
