A report of threats to self-harm lead police to seize firearms at a residence in Vernon. On the morning of Saturday March 23rd, 2024, police received information that a man on social media was threatening to harm himself with a firearm.

When frontline officers responded to the residence, the man was cooperative with police and exited the apartment building.
