A person was shot early Thursday morning at a house on Emerald Street.

Police were called to a house in the 1600 block of Emerald Street about 3:15 a.m. about a shooting, said Lt. Rick Newnum.

A male acquaintance of someone at the house came to the home, Newnum said. Someone else at the house pulled a gun on the man and the acquaintance shot that person.

The victim was taken to the hospital with injuries that were described as not life-threatening.

Newnum said the district attorney's office determined no charges will be filed because it was self-defense.
