A man was taken into custody late Wednesday in connection with a reported kidnapping after a standoff in a Trophy Club neighborhood that involved an officer opening fire, police say.

Trophy Club Police Chief Patrick Arata said officers were called at about 10 p.m. to a home on Crestwood Drive, where Carrollton police requested officers to check for a woman who was reported to have been kidnapped.

Arriving officers noted a vehicle connected with the Carrollton incident parked outside the home, Arata said. When officers began checking the home, a man walked out of the house with a gun in his hand.

This prompted one of the officers to fire one shot, though it didn't hit anyone, Arata said.
