LOS ANGELES (AP) - A person with knowledge of the situation says Los Angeles officials are holding closed-door talks about a possible event for Michael Jackson on Tuesday at a downtown arena.

The person, who wasn't authorized to speak publicly, said the event would take place at the Staples Center, home of the Los Angeles Lakers.

It wasn't immediately clear if a funeral or a public memorial was being discussed for the entertainer - or both.

The person says all talks are preliminary, and no decisions have been made.

Another site that has also been discussed for a Jackson tribute is the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
