Four unmarked police cars, a marked police car and armed police were seen by an eye-witness



A huge police presence was witnessed in Holbrooks on Saturday evening, with armed police in attendance.

A CoventryLive reader from the area got in touch to say they had seen four unmarked police cars, a marked police car and armed police on Glaisdale Avenue at around 8pm.

The Holbrooks reader said: “Unknown event unravelling on Glaisdale Avenue, Holbrooks.

“Four undercover cop cars one marked car. Armed police at scene.”

The reader said police were keeping local people away from the incident.

West Midlands Police have since revealed that the large police presence, which included armed police, was in response to “a domestic incident” and that it saw the arrest of a 28-year-old man.

This seems really over the top for a 'domestic'.

I'm seriously beginning to wonder about our police operating procedures, no wonder they have insufficient money if they are so profligate.
