The Kansas Bureau of Investigation said a man was shot by police officers early Monday during a confrontation in Kansas City, Kansas, and he was arrested after being treated at a hospital.

The KBI said police were called to an apartment complex near 61st Street and Leavenworth Road around 3 a.m. on a report of someone firing shots in the parking lot.  Officers saw a man with a rifle leaning out of a second floor window.  The man pointed a rifle at an officer and another officer fired a shot, striking the man in the shoulder.

The 21-year-old man was taken to a hospital, and he was released later in the day.  He was then booked into jail for aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer.  The KBI is investigating.
