Windsor police confirmed that when officers arrived on the scene and knocked on the door of the residence, a man inside became aggressive, brandished a knife, and barricaded himself inside of a bedroom.

When he refused to exit the room, officers set up a perimeter around the property. The man was negotiated with by officers, and surrendered at around 4:15 p.m.

The road was closed between Ellis and Giles for around two hours.
