An armed suspect was shot and injured by a police officer shooting at a San Jose hotel Sunday morning, a police spokesman said.
Officers responded to reports of an armed man at the Extended Stay Hotel at 55 E. Brokaw Road at about 7:45 a.m., San Jose police Officer Jose Garcia said.
Responding officers found the suspect asleep in a stairwell. They said he displayed "threatening behavior" after waking prompting one officer to shoot at the suspect in self-defense, Garcia said.
The suspect was shot at least once and was taken to a hospital to be treated.
His injuries were not considered life-threatening, according to police.
No officers were injured in the shooting. This was San Jose's seventh officer-involved shooting.
