Police in Albany were called to the 400 block of Hamilton Street just before 4 p.m Friday with reports of a shooting, Albany Police spokesperson Steve Smith said.
Nearly an hour later, Smith said the victim had died and the shooting was being investigated as a homicide.
Smith did not provide any information on the victim and what relationship, if any, they may have had with the shooter.
Pictures from the scene showed a heavy police response with officers aiming guns toward a residential building.
The incident prompted the closure of Hamilton Street between Quail and Ontario streets, police said.
A nearby resident told NewsChannel 13 that officers were engaged in a standoff with the suspect and police had asked neighbors not to come out of their homes.
