Arrest made following another dramatic rooftop standoff in Grimsby

Another rooftop standoff occurred in Grimsby today, as a man was seen on the roof of some residential terraced houses.

There was a Police cordon in place on each side of Beechwood Avenue, and officers were seen throughout the surrounding area.

It is apparent the man in question is known to the locals, as almost all referred to the man by name.

An officer from Humberside Police said at the scene it is alleged the male is a juvenile, and his identity is currently unknown. There were crowds of spectators gathering around the cordon, following an increased Police presence in the area due to a firearm incident, last week.

Humberside Police have been contacted for a statement regarding this incident, as information will come forward.

Updates to follow.
