COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — A shelter-in-place alert was issued for a Colorado Springs neighborhood Tuesday morning.

Colorado Springs Police tell our newsroom that officers are on scene working to serve a warrant at a home along Hans Brinker Street. Details about what that warrant might be related to were not shared.

According to our crew on scene, a woman was detained at the residence around 8:50 a.m. As of 8:53 a.m., the shelter-in-place order was lifted.

Just before 4:30 a.m., the following was posted to Peak Alerts for a neighborhood near Douglas Creek Open Space north of Fillmore Street and east of Centennial Boulevard:

"The Colorado Springs Police Department has issued a SHELTER IN PLACE ORDER for Surrounding area of the 1000 block of Hans Brinker St due to LAW ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITY near 1004 Hans Brinker St.
