Shots were fired at police in Chicago early Sunday morning.
The suspects are currently holed up in a building on the far south side.

Protests broke out in Chicago last night where Black Lives activists fought with police.

The Tribune reported:

People suspected of having fired shots at police on the Far South Side early Sunday have barricaded themselves in a building, police said.

At approximately 3:45 a.m., someone fired shots at police officers in the 10300 block of South Avenue N in the East Side neighborhood, a police spokeswoman said.

Shortly afterward, people suspected of being involved barricaded themselves in a building on the same block.

As of 7:45 a.m., the possible suspects were still inside, police said.

UPDATE: The standoff is now over though it is not clear what happened.
