Police have resolved a family harm incident in Mt Roskill safely.

One man is in custody after Police spent a lengthy time trying to engage with the man who was inside a property with a distressed female.

The Police helicopter, Eagle, identified an opportunity to separate the pair.

Specialist staff deployed distraction devices and the man was taken into custody.

No one was injured.

Police anticipate road cordons around White Swan Road will lift shortly and greatly appreciate co-operation from the public this afternoon.

Our priority was to ensure the safety of the pair inside the residence and of the wider community.

There is no ongoing risk to the public at this time.
