    BURBANK (CBS) - A residential neighborhood in Burbank was evacuated
    Thursday after reports of gun shots fired, according to police.

    Police received calls at 6:48 a.m. along the 1800 block of Keeler
    Street, according to Burbank Police Sgt. Darin Ryburn.

    A witness told police that he saw a man walk outside a home and fire
    two shots inside the residence.

    When police arrived on scene, officers detected the odor of gun powder
    in the air and called for additional units.

    One man exited the residence and cooperated with police while three
    more people stayed inside the house. It was unclear whether they
    were armed.

    Shortly after that, SWAT officers arrived on the scene and evacuated
    the area.

    They then spoke over a loudspeaker in both Armenian and English
    and successfully coaxed the other three suspects out of the house
    without incident.

    All four men were taken into custody just before 12:00 p.m.
