KAMLOOPS — RCMP had to close down a section of roadway in Valleyview yesterday afternoon while they dealt with a distraught man with a knife.
Around 4:00 PM, Staff Sergeant Robert Daly says police were called to the Frontage Road and Valleyview Drive after a man with a knife started threatening himself, and later police.
The 42-year old man was extremely agitated, according to Daly, and police closed down the area for everyone’s safety.
A crisis negotiator was brought in, and the man was ultimately taken into custody without any injuries.
