Residents were ordered to leave their homes while police responded to the incident
Police have arrested a 49-year-old man following an incident that locked down a street in Arbroath for over six hours.
Officials have not clarified the nature of the disturbance following the man's arrest. However, gas network operator SGN has confirmed that it was asked to isolate the supply at a property in the street as part of the emergency response. A 49-year-old man has since been arrested in connection with the incident and will appear in court tomorrow.
