A major emergency response is unfolding in Perth’s south due to a “serious incident”.

Significant police resources were sent to Keysbrook, about 73km south-east of Perth, on Saturday morning.

Blue and white police tape cordoned off the Hilltop Orchard residence from the top of the dirt turnoff on Scarp Road by 10am, with several police cars and an ambulance in the driveway.

Armed tactical response group officers were seen searching the outbuildings on the property about 10.20am, when a woman emerged with her hands in the air. The woman’s involvement in the incident remains unclear.

Detectives were seen outside a larger building on the property, with about a dozen police vehicles and ambulances nearby.

About an hour later, police could be seen walking out a woman and child down the driveway. The woman was dressed in blue forensic overalls and the pair got into the back seats of an unmarked police car before it drove away.

A police spokesman said one person has been arrested at the scene and is “assisting with inquiries”.

Members of the public are being told to stay away from the area and await further advice.
