Armed police are currently at a home in Leeds after a man was seen with what appeared to be a handgun.
A police operation is currently ongoing at an address in Half Mile Green, Stanningley.
A West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “At 12.36pm today, officers were called to a domestic-related incident at the property but withdrew on seeing a male at the address in possession of what appeared to be a handgun.
“A cordon is currently in place and various emergency service resources, including police negotiators, are at the scene working to bring the incident to a safe conclusion.
“The male is the only person in the address and there is no risk to the wider community.”
