A man has been charged following a 12-hour standoff in Saint John’s north end.
Officers responded to a call on Wright Street just before midnight on Thursday night.
When they arrived, a man barricaded himself inside the residence with a firearm.
Specialized teams, including negotiators and tactical units, were on the scene.
Officers closed a section of Wright Street and asked nearby residents to stay inside.
Police said a man surrendered to officers at around 12:20 p.m. on Friday.
An 18-year-old man later appeared in court and was charged with possessing a firearm for a dangerous purpose.
He was remanded to jail and is scheduled to return to court on Monday for a bail hearing.
