Police say shots were fired around 7:30 p.m. The suspect fired at officers and officers returned fire.

Barberton High School and its sports fields were evacuated where football practice and a wrestling event were taking place. Barber Road was shut down at I-76 to Morgan Avenue.

People in the area were told to lock their doors and stay inside.

The suspect, identified as David Michael Havrilek, 41, of Akron, was taken into custody at Barber Road Storage.

He was taken to Akron General Hospital with at least one gunshot wound, according to officials at the scene.
