A spokeswoman for the Chicago Police Department said the house was cleared about 1:30p.m. A 30-year-old man was taken into police custody.
No injuries were reported, police said. No one else was believed to have been in the house with him.
Further details were not immediately available.
Officers were working to reopen streets in the area, police said.
