A cordon put in place in the street was lifted last night, with police tape at the corner home. PCs and PCSOs remain in the area.

Neighbour Robert Williams, 74, said he saw two men in their 20s on Monday afternoon. He said one had jumped over the rear garden wall.

Mr Williams, who saw fire crews arrive on Tuesday at around 8.30am, said: ‘Initially it was two fire engines, then the ambulance turned up, then the police turned up.

‘The fire brigade were getting hoses out and shut off the road, and that was the road shut off until they opened it up and the house was taped off.’
