A few tense moments at a Chatham home last night, where Chatham-Kent police called in their Critical Incident Response Team.

Officers attended the residence and learned a man wanted for violence domestic-related offences, as well as breaching his probation order, was inside.

As the officer believed he had a weapon, they called for backup – the CIRT team.

A search of the home initially revealed nothing, but after hearing noises coming from the attic and seeing insulation on the floor of a bedroom with attic access, the CIRT team staked out the attic entrance.

Police say the man eventually came down and turned himself in.

A 40-year-old Chatham man was arrested on outstanding warrants.
