A stand-off between Gardai and a male who had barricaded himself into a house in Letterkenny ended peacefully last night.

Gardai imposed a media blackout when the situation started yesterday afternoon.

Gardaí had been requested to assist a state agency in the execution of a Court Order at a residence in the Letterkenny area.

A male had barricaded himself in a room within the dwelling.

An Garda Síochána initiated its Operational Command protocol. An On-Scene Commander was appointed and local Garda negotiators attached to the National Negotiators Unit attended the scene with assistance from a number of other Garda Units.

Shortly before 7.00pm last night, as a result of negotiations, the incident was brought to a peaceful resolution.

An Garda Síochána said they will be making no further comment on the incident.
