A man with a gun is trapped inside a CVS drugstore at 51st & Broadway as cops wait outside. The suspect was discovered inside the store before it opened, meaning that no employees were hurt. As of now authorities are telling people to avoid the area. Police have set up a perimeter around the area.

No word if the gunman shot anyone. We'll update as soon as we know more.

Update: Media reports that '[i]t's not clear whether the man had a gun. The employees said they hadn't seen one." Officer Johnna Watson explains, "It's not typical for anyone to walk into a store, a place of business, wearing a ski mask, so we have to assume the worst...We have to assume that this individual was there maybe to do some type of criminal activity, and so we're going to treat it with the utmost caution."

Update II: "Possible gunman" escapes! After the SWAT team walked into the CVS store, they couldn't find the suspect. Huh.
