A 62-year-old London, Ont., man is facing multiple weapons charges after police allege he fired a gun multiple times outside a west London home Wednesday night.

According to police, officers responded to the scene in the 800-block of Berkshire Drive around 9 p.m. and took a man into custody without incident around 20 minutes later.

No physical injuries were reported.

Police say the following day, a search of the residence resulted in the seizure of two rifles and a shotgun.
