A [shooting](http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US%5FVETERANS%5FCLINIC%5FSHOTS%5FFIRED?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT "undefined") at a Veterans Affairs hospital in Ohio left at least one person injured Monday, but police quickly said a suspect was in custody.

The victim suffered a minor leg injury, the Associated Press reports. Officials blocked the roads to the hospital located in Dayton, and at least part of the hospital was on lockdown.

Authorities said there were no other shooters involved other than a male suspect in custody. The gun allegedly used in the shooting was found in the suspect’s truck at his sister’s house, _USA Today_ [reports](http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/05/05/veterans-administration-dayton-ohio-shooting-report/8722135/ "undefined").
