A 44-year-old man was taken into custody after an hours-long standoff Sunday after police received a call about a male with a firearm.
Guelph Police said the call of a male with a firearm came in at 3:24 p.m.
As officers attended an address on Elizabeth Street, a portion of that street between Huron and Duke streets was closed off for a number of hours.
The department's Tactical Unit was on the scene at the time, as well as the Police Emergency Command Unit.
By 6:11 p.m., a suspect was taken into custody without incident.
The man left the house on his own accord and through police negotiations, said police.
As a result of the incident, a 44-year-old Guelph male was charged with pointing a firearm, weapons dangerous and three counts of uttering a threat to cause death.
He will appear in court on June 18.
