Police say several explosive devices were found inside an RV where an allegedly armed man had barricaded himself for about 14 hours in Barrie, Ont.
Police say officers responded to a call about an individual with a firearm in an RV parked in a lot on Bayfield Street Tuesday morning.
They say officers made contact with the man inside the vehicle just before noon when he discharged a firearm, but no one was injured.
Investigators say nearby homes and businesses were evacuated as a tactical team and crisis negotiators worked to resolve the situation peacefully.
Police say the man surrendered shortly after 4 a.m. Wednesday, and will be facing multiple charges after receiving medical attention.
They say several improvised explosive devices were found in the RV and all were neutralized or removed.
