Reno Police say a man was arrested after a brief standoff near Redfield Parkway and Kietzke Lane early Monday morning.
Police were called to that area before 9:30 a.m. on Monday after a report of a robbery near a business in the 4800 block of Kietzke Lane.
Police say the suspect, 26-year-old Anthony Anderson ran from the scene reportedly with a gun and they found him near Redfield.
When officers tried to talk him he didn't want to cooperate so police sent in a negotiator and SWAT and temporarily blocked off area streets.
SWAT officers hit him with a less than lethal round to get him to comply.
"REMSA is on scene. He received very minor injuries as he was wearing a very thick jacket," says Officer Tim Broadway.
After taking him into custody, police say the man had a pellet gun on him but threw it into the intersection when they arrived.
Anderson was charged with Robbery with a Deadly Weapon, and Obstructing and Resisting Officers.
