(AP) -- KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- A naked man with a bow and arrows has been taken into custody after a brief standoff with Kansas City police.

The Kansas City Star reports police responded Monday night to a report that a naked man was knocking on a neighbor's door.

When police arrived, the man went inside a house and refused to come out, but then shot an arrow out of a window toward the area where the officers were hiding.

Police called for backup and tactical officers surrounded the house for about an hour before the man came outside and was subdued with a Taser.

Police say the man was taken to a hospital for treatment.
