UPDATE 9:44 a.m.
Police converged in front of a home on Kelowna's Lester Road for what they say was a "call for help" with multiple weapons allegedly in play.
"RCMP officers and ERT contained and isolated the home and closed Lester Road for public safety," RCMP said in a statement.
"ERT conducted several callouts to the occupants in the home and eventually multiple people exited the residence and were taken into custody. The home was then cleared with no injures reported."
RCMP said the investigation is ongoing and no other details can be released at this time and Lester Road will be reopened shortly. There is no danger to public safety.
