Victoria Police have arrested a man they allege threatened to shoot another person.
Police say officers responded to a report of a man threatening to shoot someone in the 11-hundred block on Pandora Avenue on June 9th.

The Greater Victoria Emergency Response Team made the arrest, and the suspect is being held by Victoria Police for court.
