Police made an emergency declaration at 10pm on Monday after reports of an armed person in the town of Warwick, southwest of Brisbane.
Specialist police entered a residence about 8.15am on Tuesday, and a 38-year-old man was located deceased.
No shots were fired, and no threats were made.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
The emergency declaration was Queensland’s second in two days after a near 10-hour siege in Townsville that ended on Monday morning.
A 50-year-old man was found dead in a Kirwan home after firing several shots that hit nearby houses and the vehicles of responding officers.
