Police think they know who the man is, but are choosing not to release his identity until it can be confirmed, Stewart said.

The man first fired shots at officers from the porch of a home in the 700 block of SE 49 about 3:05 a.m. Saturday, police said.

The man was arrested after a short manhunt and taken to a hospital with a gunshot wound. Stewart said the man has been booked into the Oklahoma County jail.

No one else was hurt in the incident.

The officer who shot the man, Sgt. Claylan Cline, has been placed on routine administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.
