KEY POINTS:
Reports of an armed woman in Waimate sparked an armed offenders call-out today.
Senior Sergeant Randel Tikitiki said the domestic incident happened at about mid-day.
He said a man called police and said he had been threatened by a woman with a gun.
"He has then done a runner and called police," Mr Tikitiki said.
He said the armed offenders squad was at the scene but in the end they were not needed because the woman gave herself up immediately.
