One person has been charged with firearm-related offences following an incident just east of Chatham-Kent.
The Elgin Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) were called to Graham Street in West Lorne around 1 a.m. on New Year's Day for a disturbance involving three people.
Police say two people in a vehicle had an interaction with a third individual, but they were able to safely leave the area.
A shelter-in-place order was put into effect while the West Elgin Emergency Response Team and Canine Unit (K9) searched the area.
That order was lifted when the individual was located around 3:15 a.m. and taken into custody without incident.
A 29-year-old from West Elgin is charged with two counts of assault with a weapon, two counts of pointing a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unauthorized possession of a firearm, and failure to comply with an undertaking.
He was held for a bail hearing and has since been remanded into custody.
Elgin OPP are also thanking the public for their cooperation and support during this incident.
