A man has been arrested after armed police were called to a siege.

The 54-year-old man allegedly barricaded himself in a flat on Balmoral Terrace in Dundee at 4.40am on Sunday.

Neighbouring homes were evacuated while armed police dealt with the incident.

Surrounding roads were also cordoned off.

Inspector Michael Whitford said: "This was a contained incident and there was no wider risk to the public, although it did require a police presence in the area for a period of time.

"We are grateful to local residents for their patience and understanding while officers worked at the scene."
