Pair charged after Brisbane emergency

Two men have been charged after reports about an armed offender forced police to shut down streets in a Brisbane suburb.

Police declared an emergency situation at Wavell Heights on Tuesday afternoon when a member of the public said an armed man may have been at a house in Newman Street.

Officers moved in and two men, aged 21 and 18, have since been charged with drug-related offences and trespass. No weapons charges have been laid.
