Vancouver police are on the scene of a standoff Friday morning at a home in the 5800-block Knight Street.
The VPD emergency response team was called in to lock down the residence after a call came in to 911 around 12:30 a.m.
Police negotiators are trying to make contact with the people inside.
VPD spokeswoman Const. Jana McGuinness didn't say whether weapons were suspected or what caused the lockdown.
Morning commuters are advised to avoid Knight Street as it was closed in both directions as of 6 a.m.
More to come...

Saw the set up of this last night on the way home from hockey. There were cops all over the side streets and a squad of at least 4-6 cops waiting for what looked like a sneak attack from the side of the front door stairs. Thought it was a drug bust since my ex used to tell me how there were tonnes of drug houses across hers. Lots of R8s and Porsches driving around at night there lol...

i got followed back to my gfs house last night further down near 37th by a undie and, as soon as i pulled into back alley to garage area, he pulled in but stopped and went and backed up and left  . later when i left, i rolled into the shell and there was already 3 undies parked there, two marked ones along the side of 41st by duffins and as i was pumping gas another tahoe rolls up and two cops jump out with a dog and tackle this guy walking by me lol... they might've got the wrong person cuz the expression on his face was  After that, 4 more crowns and a f150 undie cars blast past me by the shell gas station nearby, im guessing around the townhouse area. Last week, the same thing happened but across the street in a different neighborhood so probably some re-offending person. they tryin to find

I think he just came out from gas station and walked towards the pedestrian walk and they just told him to get on his stomach with the dog! the guys reaction was priceless though.

| Vancouver's Knight St. reopened following police standoff Vancouver's Knight St. reopened following police standoff - British Columbia - CBC News Quote:
Police have arrested five people after a nine-hour standoff at a home on the 5800 block of Knight Street in East Vancouver on Friday morning.
The standoff shut down traffic along Knight Street between 41st Avenue and 49th Avenue until five people were persuaded to come out of the home and were arrested by police.
The street was reopened to traffic at around 11:15 a.m. PT.
The incident began when police responded to a 911 call just after midnight.
The police emergency response team responded with an armoured truck. Officers used a loudspeaker to demand the occupants of the house come out, before eventually firing off some sort of canisters at the home.
After searching the house, police said they found evidence of a grow-op. Nobody was injured in the incident, said police.
"The investigation is continuing and no one has been charged at this early stage," said Const. Jana McGuinness in a statement issued just before noon.
