Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies responded at around 4 p.m., clearing the area of shoppers and surrounding the man, who is alone inside the store.

A spokesperson for the sheriff's office told NBC Los Angeles they believe the man ordered everyone out of the store and no hostages had been taken. The man has threatened to commit suicide, according to KTLA.

There were no injuries reported.

A heavily-armed SWAT team is on the scene, according to NBC Los Angeles.
