An incident involving a group of juveniles at Sunrise Rollerland drew a heavy police presence Friday night.

Police said officers responded to the location just after 9 p.m. on June 17 after an employee of Sunrise Rollerland called 911. The caller reported an individual was possibly armed with a firearm.

Multiple officers responded to the scene and contacted a group of juveniles who were reportedly yelling and screaming. No injuries were reported and Police did not locate any firearms after a search of the area with assistance from a Sacramento County Sheriff K-9 unit.

One juvenile was arrested at the scene in connection with a separate case, police said in response to an inquiry from The Sentinel. No further information was released because the individuals involved are juveniles.

Witnesses reported a heavy police presence in the area at the time, and police say they plan to increase patrols of the area.
