UPDATE: Police stand-off with Brisbane man now in ninth hour

After nine hours, police are still negotiating with a man at a siege in Brisbane's south.

The man has locked himself in a home in Inala yesterday following reports he was damaging property and making threats.

Special emergency response officers were called to Lorikeet Street about 12.40pm and have been there since.

Roads around the stand-off have been closed, including the area between Lorikeet, Partridge, Sunbird and Shelduck Streets.

Nearby residents have been asked to stay indoors while the siege continues.

The man has yet to threaten to do harm to anyone but himself.
