On Wednesday, February 21, 2024 at 6:14 pm, Chetwynd RCMP were called to a home on Wabi Cres in the community.

It was reported that an adult man, a resident of the home, was destroying property within the house. When police attended the home the man stated that he had a firearm and threatened to use the firearm.

When all attempts to have the man exit the home were unsuccessful, and with the threats of a firearm, the Emergency Response Team (ERT) was called for assistance. ERT was able to remove the man from the residence without further incident and the man was uninjured.
