Two men have been arrested in Mornington this afternoon following an alleged home invasion and serious assault.

Mornington Crime Investigation Unit detectives attended an address on Main Street to arrest the men around 10am.

Both men were inside the unit at the time and refused to come out.

It is believed one of the men then allegedly threatened the other with a knife and refused to let him leave the property.

The Critical Incident Response Unit and Special Operations Group were called in to assist local police at the scene. Main Street was closed to traffic between Nepean Highway and Foam Street while negotiations took place.

It is believed both men exited the address voluntarily around 2.45pm and were arrested without incident.

Both men will assist police with their enquiries in relation to the alleged home invasion and serious assault which occurred in Mornington overnight.
