The Austin Police Department is investigating a shooting involving one of its officers that happened on Channel Island Road.

Chief Joseph Chacon says it started when someone called 911 asking for a welfare check on a person living at a home on Channel Island Road, which is off Brandt Road just east of I-35.

Police say this is considered a low priority call, so officers waited a couple of hours, until around 9 p.m., to conduct the welfare check. When they went in, they announced their presence and a person inside approached them with a gun. Chief Chacon says the officers quickly retreated outside to deescalate the situation, told the man they were police and asked him to drop the gun.
