CINCINNATI — Multiple police units, including SWAT, responded to Winton Road in Winton Hills Wednesday after an officer fired at a person during a police chase.

Cincinnati Interim Police Chief Adam Hennie said around 1:15 p.m., a PIVOT officer tried to pull a person over. That traffic stop led to a police chase on foot, where police said the person pulled out a gun. An officer fired one shot at the person, but did not hit them.

Hennie said it's believed the suspect went into 5630 Winton Rd. SWAT entered the building and arrested the suspect.

Hennie confirmed both the suspect and the officer are ok.

Officers blocked off Winton Road at Dutch Colony Drive.

The investigation is ongoing. We will update this story with more information when it is available.
