One person is in custody after an incident in Lower Sackville late last night.
The RCMP said just after 11 p.m., officers responded to Boxwood Crescent after a report a person barricading themselves inside a home and were possibly armed.
The Mounties closed down the street to traffic and asked people in the area to remain inside their homes as they conducted their investigation.
Nearly two hours later, the RCMP issued an update notifying that officers had taken the person into custody and that officers were remaining on scene.
Few other details are known at this time but the RCMP did say there was no threat to the public outside of the home.
