Local impact and practical information
Incidents of this nature can cause alarm in residential areas. Police advise anyone who witnesses behaviour they believe to be dangerous or criminal to call 999 if there is an immediate threat, or to contact Cambridgeshire Constabulary on the non-emergency number for matters requiring police attention.
Where a person is released on bail, the conditions and the timescale for any further appearance are matters recorded by police and, if proceedings follow, by the courts. Members of the public seeking updates on active cases should contact the force press office or check official police communications rather than relying on social media.
No further information regarding motive or injury has been provided by police at this stage.
If you have information about this incident, Cambridgeshire Police request that you get in touch directly.
