Police are searching for a person who called authorities claiming they would shoot themselves and others in Brisbane's Kelvin Grove.
An emergency declaration was made at 3.42am this morning after a man called police saying he was going to shoot himself, some people he was with and any police officers that came near him.
He provided a name and an address near the Queensland University of Technology.
Police shut down four streets including Carraway, Ramsgate and Blarney streets as well as Musk Avenue and began waking residents of a unit complex searching for the caller.
More than 20 officers, the dog squad and paramedics were at the scene.
After an extensive search, police were unable to find the caller.
