A Devizes road was closed by police after they were called to a concerning incident.
Armed officers were deployed to an address in Hillworth Road at around 5pm on Saturday (28 May) after concerns were raised for the welfare of a person there.
The person involved reportedly made various threats, including the mention of weapons. 
As a result, to protect the public from the potential threat, motorists and pedestrians were stopped from passing the scene for at least one hour.
