Police said the man climbed into the ceiling of a home as police went looking for him.

He then held police off in a siege that lasted until he was arrested a little after 4.30pm.

Lots of police could be seen on Weddell St during the afternoon.

A section of Weddell St, between Swallow and Sobraon Sts, was blocked off by police during the siege, while a large number of uniform, family violence unit and crime investigation unit police attended the incident.

A 31-year-old Shepparton man was arrested.

He was to be interviewed by police Thursday night in relation to the outstanding warrants and Thursday’s siege.
