A resident in the area who wished to remain anonymous said; “I was at work so I didn’t see anything. I just came home like normal and the cordon was all there.”

A retired 61 year old who did not wish to be named said: “We didn’t hear it to start off. I think it was about four or five o’clock or maybe a bit later. There was loads of police officers.
"It was still there when I went to bed about 11 or 12 o’clock. It is quite unusual for the area, we do get a bit of bother and little bits but nothing like that.
"Nobody could get in or out. It’s lucky we have a back gate to let our friend in.
"They weren’t letting any one through. A neighbour down there has her daughter stuck on the other side of it and they wouldn’t let her through."
Another resident on the street said: “There was still police here when we got here. It was up until about 9.45pm last night.
"It might have been a bit later. It was huge, it went from here to about three houses up.
"It is worrying to me because someone phoned me up and let me know so I was a bit worried about coming home."
Nottinghamshire Police has been approached for more information on the incident.
