One person is in custody after reports of a person with a “deadly weapon” prompted a lockdown of KTLA and Netflix on a Hollywood studio lot Thursday.

Los Angeles Police Department Officer Tony Im said the department received “second hand” information about a person who was armed. Later, Im said a person was in custody. He wasn’t sure where the suspect was detained, but said police did a “followup” several blocks away in the 5600 block of Franklin Avenue.

Video from Sky5 showed several patrol cars outside residences at Franklin at North Gramercy Place.
