A gunman was threatening someone close to him, but luckily he couldn’t hurt him.

The scene was active for more than two hours after a call alerted the Miami Police Department to the man who was armed with a shotgun.

In the footage, you will see dozens of police officers and several armored vehicles from the Special Weapons and Tactics Team arriving at the scene.

It happened around 1 p.m. after an emergency call amid a dangerous situation that could have ended in tragedy.

Upon arriving at the scene, located at the northwest intersection of 63 Court and 2nd Street in Flagami, officers cordoned off the perimeter, but the man who was armed fled.

Until now, his identity and the reasons why he threatened to kill one of his family members are unknown.

From the Miami Police Department, they confirmed that the man was eventually arrested, but the gun he was holding has yet to be found.

Several surrounding streets were closed during this operation, preventing other people from approaching or crossing this street in the event of a reaction from the suspect.
