No serious injuries were incurred and the individual is cooperating, the Central Western Daily understands.

It's unclear what prompted the rapid incursion. The suspect's identity and the circumstances of the raid are yet to be confirmed.

The home had been surrounded by more than a dozen heavily armed police - and at least five vehicles - since about 9.30am, Tuesday.

Multiple earlier attempts to enter were unsuccessful during the day, police told media.

A large crowd formed during the day, with as many as fifty people congregating near the closed road in the late afternoon.

The road remains barricaded-off as officers clear the scene. Residents are advised to avoid the area.
