CALGARY – Charges are pending against a man who allegedly flashed a handgun at officers as they conducted a traffic stop in the community of Temple.
It happened in an alley in the 200 block of Templebow Place N.E. at around 2 a.m.
Police said they had pulled over a vehicle and were speaking with the occupants when a man “exited a nearby home and brandished a handgun.”
The offender then retreated back into the home, with several others already inside.
The Calgary Police Service Tactical Unit attended the scene, cordoning off part of the community.
After a standoff that lasted for about six hours, the offender and six others in the home exited and were taken into custody.
Investigators are working to obtain a search warrant for the home, and say charges are pending.
