“This was a distressing, but isolated incident and I would like to reassure people there is no threat to the wider public and we are not looking for anyone else in connection with this incident.

“It really should go without saying, but the level of violence showcased in this incident is completely unacceptable and has absolutely no place in our communities.

“While we have arrested multiple people in connection with this, we are still investigating multiple lines of inquiry, so would ask anyone who knows what happened to come forward.

“We’d also ask that anyone who has any CCTV or mobile phone footage that could assist us to get in touch with the police on 101, quoting incident 330 of March 15, 2023.”
