ROSEVILLE -- One person is in custody following reports of a shooting near a Raley's grocery store in Roseville, authorities say.
According to CHP, the suspected shooter is in custody. It's unknown if the shooter has been injured. According to two teens near the shooting, police were yelling at the suspect and a short time later, shots were fired.

There are also reports that someone was transported from the area of the nearby dog park on a stretcher.
Roseville police say the area is safe, but that people should avoid the area. Authorities are asking people not to pick up their children until the situation is resolved.
