CINCINNATI — A busy South Fairmount intersection has reopened after being closed for more than an hour due to a SWAT situation, Cincinnati police said.

Traffic is now flowing on Queen City Avenue and Westwood Avenue.

Investigators said a SWAT team was called because a woman having a mental health crisis barricaded herself inside the home and claimed she had guns.

Investigators said the situation has been resolved and there is no threat to the public.

No one was injured in this incident, police said.
