Provincial Police have reopened a road in Tavistock which was closed overnight for a standoff.
Officers say they arrested a 50-year-old local man without incident just after 3 a.m. Wednesday.
The suspect is facing three counts of uttering threats to cause bodily harm.
Police initially closed a section of Woodstock Street due to an undisclosed threat, however at the time police said a residence had been contained and there was no further threat to public safety.
Members of the West Region Emergency Response Team were on scene along with the Tactics and Rescuse Unit, West Region Canine Units and Crisis Negotiators.
Police said they would remain on scene for several hours Wednesday to complete their investigation, but all area roads have been reopened.
