One person has been detained after authorities responded to reports of a “possible active shooter” at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Downey on Tuesday, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

Sheriff’s deputies and Downey police were dispatched to the medical facility, which is located at 9333 Imperial Highway, the department tweeted around noon.

There were no immediate confirmed reports of shots fired or any injuries.

Sky5 video over the hospital showed numerous law enforcement personnel at the scene, and at least a dozen patrol vehicles were parked on the street outside.

Dozens of peoples who were cleared from the medical center could be seen marching out single-file, some with their arms up, the aerial footage showed.

Authorities are in the process of searching the building, and people are being asked to avoid the hospital. Those still inside the building are urged to shelter in place.
