The incident started as a landlord-tenant dispute before it turned into a barricade situation in the 4800 block of Gambier Street, according to Los Angeles police.
Authorities said the suspect fired a nail gun at officers numerous times.
The man, who police said is a known parolee, was barricaded inside the home as SWAT officers responded.
The suspect was later taken into custody. Information on injuries, if any, were not immediately released.
