A primary school in Cornwall has been closed as police hunt a 60-year-old man who is thought to have access to guns.
Armed officers were called to a house close to Trenode Church of England Primary School near Looe at 9.30pm last night.
Devon and Cornwall Police said: "Police are not able to share much detail at this time but can say that this is a domestic situation and it is understood one of the occupants has access to firearms.
"The situation is being contained and police at the scene are searching for a 60-year-old male in the vicinity.
"No further information is available at this time."
The decision to close the school was made by its headteacher in consultation with police.
The police spokesman added: "This unusual decision has been taken as a precautionary measure for safety reasons and because of the ongoing police activity in that area.
"We do understand that this will cause some significant inconvenience for some parents and local residents and this decision was not taken lightly, but public safety is the most important concern of the school and police."
People have been warned to avoid the area, a rural location in Widegates, and to report anything suspicious.
