A man has been arrested on suspicion of making a hoax bomb threat after a suspicious package was found in a town centre shop.

A 100m cordon was set up around the store in Queens Road, Nuneaton, by police at about 14:30 BST on Friday following the discovery.

Army explosive ordnance disposal experts were called to the scene to assess and deal with the package.

Police arrested a 40-year-old from London after it was found to have not been an explosive device.

The suspect remains in custody, Warwickshire Police has said.
