MERIDEN, Conn. — A temporary shelter-in-place has been lifted for residents in the area of Federal Street in Meriden on Saturday morning after police resolved an investigation in the area.

A FOX61 crew on the scene observed with police, firefighters and ambulances on a scene in the area of Federal and Ridgefield Streets. That area was closed for several hours and has since been cleared.

Police negotiated with someone who locked himself inside his home, Meriden police confirmed. He has since come out of the home "peacefully and he is not injured," police said around 10 a.m. Saturday.

He will be taken to an area hospital for evaluation, according to police. No charges will be filed at this time, police said.
