Two men have been arrested following a weapons-related incident at a home near Hampton.
RCMP said officers were called to a residence on Route 111 in Hillsdale last Wednesday.
Members of the Sussex and Hampton RCMP detachments were assisting the Saint John Police Force in the search for a missing woman.
The woman was found safe at the scene. Police say she told officers that two men inside the home had access to firearms.
A containment area was set up and RCMP called in their Emergency Response Team, including Tactical Armoured Vehicles.
A 55-year-old from Hillsdale and a 36-year-old from Springfield were arrested without incident.
Police later searched the home and seized a shotgun and a crossbow.
The 55-year-old appeared in court last Thursday and was charged with unsafe storage of a firearm.
He was released and is scheduled to return to court on August 14.
The 36-year-old appeared the same day and was charged with possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unauthorized possession of a firearm, unsafe storage of a firearm and failure to comply with a court order.
He was remanded and will appear in court on a future date.
