'Ontario Provincial Police are asking people along parts of Highway 9 in the Caledon area to shelter in place Saturday morning as officers respond to "an incident in the area involving some potentially armed individuals."

The shelter in place covers Highway 9 between The Gore Road, Patterson Side Road, Finnerty Street and Humber Station Road in Caledon, OPP said in a news release Saturday. People outside that area are asked to avoid travelling there until further notice.

Police did not immediately provide more details about the incident in the area that's prompted the shelter-in-place request.'

''Ontario Provincial Police blocked off a large area on Highway 9 between The Gore Road, Patterson Side Road, Finnerty Street and Humber Station Road on Saturday morning.

“We ask members of the public to take action to protect their safety while police work to apprehend the individuals,” police said in a social media post.

“If you are outside, seek shelter immediately. Secure your safety inside a building or another safe location. If possible, close your curtains to avoid drawing attention to yourself or your family. Do not engage with anyone suspicious.”
