Greece Police say one of their officers shot a man on Sunday after he pointed a gun at police.

It happened on Stone Road at about 11:00 a.m.  Police were called to the house for a report of dogs running loose in the area, and they were helping Animal Control staffers.

Police officials say a man inside the home pulled a weapon on officers and one of the officers shot the man.  That man is now being treated at the hospital.

No police officers were injured.

A portion of Stone Road is expected to be closed into the night.
