A quiet neighbourhood in Kelowna, B.C., was jolted into action Thursday afternoon, as police swarmed a home on Britanico Road.
Several nearby residents said they heard a loud bang, followed by police shouting.
More than half a dozen police vehicles as well as police dogs were present at the home, and a small number of neighbourhood residents had gathered to watch the spectacle.
Police used a drone to try and get an overhead vantage point.

Traffic was diverted as a large police presence of Kelowna RCMP and Emergency Response Team personnel could be spotted outside the home.
A local RCMP officer has told Global News that CFSEU — the province’s anti-gang agency — was present at the home. One male and one female have been arrested and taken into custody, in relation to an ongoing drug investigation.
