Police responded to an emergency call last night after reports of a man “acting erratically with a knife” in Kingsland Close.
Officers swiftly attended the scene and detained a 36-year-old local man. The man was taken to the hospital due to a medical condition, but he has since been discharged. A knife was recovered from the scene, and no one else was injured during the incident.
Following his discharge from the hospital, the man was arrested on suspicion of possessing a weapon in a public place and is now in police custody.
