Anyone local know what’s going on?

Looks like a huge response.

Sky News saying a man arrested after 3 people killed.

Recycledblonde · 13/06/2023 09:44

Three people found dead and one man arrested according to latest on BBC.

Gosh well I certainly hope it’s nothing serious, but clearly it is something, given the response.

This world terrifies me sometimes.

Who knows but to me it has to be more than a random stabbing or shooting as Nottingham is full of those on any given day and they don't close down half the city centre for it.

This isn’t exactly true…

Im in Nottingham and apart from no trams going past my house, and lots of sirens, I have no idea what’s going on. My curiosity is driving me half mad though. We’re used to getting immediate information through 24 hour news and social media so it’s surprising that there is so little on this.

BeginningToLookALotLike · 13/06/2023 09:45

Three separate incidents it looks like.

The only bit of eyewitness information (and this was via GB News) was someone interviewed saying they’d heard gunshots at 530am and seen someone tasered and arrested.

That doesn’t explain the massive response.

Perhaps they have intervened and stoped a terrorist attack.

Unusual for there to not be eyewitnesses - which is good I suppose, as it suggests people haven’t been hurt.

Yes, you'd hope it must be a good sign (under the circumstances) that no one seems quite sure what's happening. Bomb, car, mass stabbings... surely there would be more than just rumours if something like this happened 4 hours ago.

3 people dead and man arrested in Nottingham in the early hours of this morning in Nottingham. Not sure if this is connected?

Sorry didn't mean to put Nottingham twice 🙄

@AngelAurora apparently there are loads and oriole have been taken to A&E at QMC. My colleagues mum is a nurse there. They are pulling nurses from wards

I'm working there today. We've heard absolutely nothing. Though it doesn't affect paediatrics. We do usually hear on the grapevine about what's going on.

Childcare47 · 13/06/2023 09:51

Very sad to hear people have died.

The taping off such a large area must be because the crime scene covers a large area.

Which explains the apparent scale of the response.

They’re National inter-agency liaison officer (NILO)

Yes, you're right. Sorry, I was going by what someone else said (glares at DH).

Why is that a ‘vile comment?’ Someone said the people in uniform were bomb disposal and I said ‘I guess we are to assume a terrorist incident?’ Who else might be planting bombs if not terrorists? I guess it could be a WW2 bomb 🤔

uncomfortablydumb53 · 13/06/2023 09:57

Just terrible
Unusual that it happened at 4am
Perhaps nightclubs closing time?
