Tense Hours on Parliament Hill: East Block Lockdown Ends Peacefully

A lockdown on Parliament Hill in Ottawa concluded late Saturday evening after a man barricaded himself inside the East Block building. Ottawa police confirmed that the situation ended without incident, and the individual was taken into custody.

The lockdown began in the afternoon when the man gained unauthorized access to the East Block, which houses parliamentary offices. Authorities evacuated the building and cordoned off a significant stretch of Wellington Street, extending the exclusion zone to Sparks Street as the situation unfolded. Specialized units, including bomb disposal robots, were deployed to ensure public safety.

Ottawa police described the circumstances as "suspicious" but did not disclose whether the man was armed or had made threats. No injuries were reported during the incident. The East Block, known for its historical significance, was quiet due to Parliament being dissolved for the ongoing federal election.

The investigation remains active, and further updates are expected as authorities piece together the details of the incident.
