Police hunt Marsh Farm gang members after weapon fight in street

Police were called at around 6.15pm to Arrow Close, after receiving several calls of a large gang fighting with weapons.

An 18-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possessing an offensive weapon and remains in police custody for questioning.

Detective Inspector Lee Martin said: “We are currently investigating the circumstances around the incident and track down the people involved.

“This type of violence is never acceptable on our streets, and local residents should not have to witness such scenes of appalling violent behaviour.

“We have arrested one man in connection with this incident, and would like to identify the others.

"If you saw anything or have any information that could help our investigation, please get in touch.”
