The Michigan State Police are investigating after a Lincoln Park officer shot and injured a 36-year-old man armed with a box cutter-style knife in Allen Park on Sunday afternoon, officials said. 

Officers were called to the area of Southfield Road near Roger Avenue around 3:20 p.m. for a report that a subject, later identified as the man, was carrying the knife and posing a danger to himself, according to police. Officers from Lincoln Park also responded to the incident.

Police found the Lincoln Park man near a 7 Brew Coffee on Southfield Road. Officials said he was "posing a threat to himself and others and the officers deployed a Taser, which had no effect" on him. 

The man started walking toward the entrance of a nearby Arby's with the knife when the officers shot a "less lethal shotgun round" at him, according to police, which also had no effect. 

Police said the man then walked into the middle of Southfield Road. The officers gave him loud, verbal commands to drop the knife, according to officials.

The man ignored the commands and "began approaching the officers in an aggressive manner," police said. An officer then fired his "duty weapon," striking the man in the arm. 

According to police, the shooting happened on Southfield Road near Allen Road around 4:15 p.m.  

Officials said the man was placed under arrest and then taken to the hospital. 

The Michigan State Police said the man was in critical condition when he was transported to the hospital, while the Allen Park Police Department said he suffered injuries that were not life-threatening. CBS News Detroit has reached out to police for clarification.

According to state officials, no officers were injured during the incident.

MSP investigators will submit a report to a prosecutor after they complete their probe.
