Peaceful outcome to 'seige'

Police and emergency services worked to achieve a peaceful outcome to a "siege" in Florida Ave, Woy Woy, on January 20.

A middle-aged resident, understood to be seriously ill, made threats to harm himself and others.

Police subsequently secured the area

After several hours of negotiations, the man was willingly taken by ambulance.

Neighbours were evacuated and Florida and Miami Ave were closed to traffic during the incident.

No one was injured during the incident and police said it was resolved with a satisfactory outcome achieved.
