It was learned a man had made threats to others and attempted to access a firearm. Several patrol units responded as did a K-9 unit and members of the Emergency Response Team. Ketch Harbour Road was shut down at Atlantic View for about one hour. The residence was contained by officers and the man eventually called out of the residence and taken into custody.
