Days after police closed some Coldstream roads as part of an investigation, a large police presence remained in the area.

Saturday evening officers were coming and going from a home on Kalamalka Road that had police tape strung across the driveway.

Several vehicles were towed from the property Saturday.

All police have said about the incident that originally drew RCMP to the area is that “frontline officers responded to a male reported to be in medical distress” early Thursday morning.

The occupants of one home, down the street from where police were stationed Saturday, told Global News someone came to the house seeking medical attention, but that police had told the occupants not to divulge anything further as the case remains under investigation.

On Thursday, as officers investigated the medical distress incident, police said there was no risk to the public.
