Around 3 p.m. Wednesday, police closed a portion of the Venice boardwalk as a man, presumed to be mentally ill, barricaded himself inside a business in the 1100 block of Ocean Front Walk.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the man began breaking glass inside the business, then holed up inside the market.
Witnesses at the scene reportedly heard the man speaking incoherently before entering the market.
A mental-health negotiation team was dispatched to the scene. At 4:37 p.m., LAPD reported that the man was in custody and there were no injuries.
