Vancouver police say there will be no charges for those involved in a bizarre police incident after an inebriated, naked woman was spotted inside a Wind Mobile store on Robson Street on Friday afternoon.

Constable Brian Montague says the incident began shortly after noon Friday, May 20, when a would-be customer tried to enter the Wind Mobile store at Robson and Hamilton but found the door locked.

He says the customer noticed a woman's foot sticking out from behind the counter and called 911.

When police arrived, Montague says the individuals inside were "uncooperative ... and didn't want to open the door and talk to officers".

"The strange set of circumstances, the suspicious nature of the circumstances and what our officers were seeing triggered a pretty large police response," he said.

Vancouver police shut down the busy block for about an hour and at one point in the standoff, drawing their guns.

Eventually two men were taken into custody while the woman was taken to hospital.

Montague said police interviewed the individuals and obtained a search warrant to review store security footage.

"I won't go into detail about what the video showed us," he said, but did add that "everything that was going on was consensual."

Montague says one of the three people involved was a store employee.

He says there was no evidence to support criminal charges but chided the individuals involved.

"Obviously this is something that could have been resolved quickly had they simply opened the door and spoken to the officers who had showed up in the first place," he said.
