Update: Some Tofield residents asked to shelter in place

Tofield RCMP issued a shelter-in-place notice for the area of Kingsway Estates on Wednesday (Oct. 19) afternoon that lasted about six hours. 

Police say this was due to reports of a man shooting a gun that resulted in a six-hour stand-off. 

Strathcona County RCMP, the Alberta Emergency Response Team, Police Dog Services, and Edmonton Police Service Air One were all on the scene to assist. 

A 44-year-old man was eventually taken into custody. Police seized a gun after searching his house. 

Luckily, nobody was injured in the incident. An investigation is ongoing.
