Sylvester Street and Portland Avenue in Rochester were shut down for several hours Wednesday night while police talked a wanted man into surrendering.

Police say the suspect was seen driving a car on Sylvester Street. He was wanted in an incident that involved a firearm. Officers momentarily lost sight of the car but spotted it again and saw the driver run into a house on Sylvester Street.

Police eventually were able to talk to the man and take him into custody. They haven’t commented on their investigation yet.
