Redmond Police this weekend assisted a man with a firearm having a mental health crisis in his home.

Several hours after being called to a call of possible domestic violence at a home in a housing development near the corner of NE 6th St. and NE Redmond Ave., police took the man away for mental health screening.

Authorities are not naming the man because he was placed in protective custody and was not arrested, according to police Lt. Curtis Chambers.

At around 3:15 p.m. Sunday, all four on-duty police officers responded to the domestic violence call. They removed other members of the household, including several children, and used reverse 911 to tell eight neighbors not to leave their houses.

Redmond officers used tips from the man’s family members to seize all other firearms in the house.
