LIVE: Longton Park closed off by police and forensics teams
Police and paramedics have been called to a Stoke-on-Trent park after forensics cordoned it off.
Eyewitnesses say all entrances to Longton Park, on Trentham Road, have been cordoned off while emergency services are on the scene.
It is currently unclear what has happened, but emergency services have confirmed they are ‘dealing with an incident’.
A Staffordshire Police spokesman confirmed an incident was being “dealt with”, but could offer no more information.
On eyewitness was in the park when it was cordoned off this morning.
They said: “I was already in the park when they shut it down.
“It seems to be something to do with the lake at the bottom of the park. It is swarming with police.”
We will bring more on this incident as we get it.
