I've been wondering the same thing. There was more activity about 20 minutes ago with three police cars heading up Bengeo Street (away from Hertford) with lights and sirens, followed five minutes later by one heading back towards Hertford and now a Police van has just gone past towards whatever the incidient is. Whatever has happened, looks like it must be quite a serious incident.

Yes and they had guns! it was like that for 3 1/2 hrs I have never seen so many police cars, an ambulance and a police 'meat wagon' was on the scene. We were told that that someone had gone berserk in one of the cottages ripping out the gasmain, but I think there was more it than that!
still not have found out anymore info.

I thought it was too much police presence for a gas leak which was what I was told................

Apparently he did trash the cottage, went away, then returned to the cottage, but SOC Officer was there and he gave the officer a right beating!!I think that's why the police came in force the second time, when they caught him, they had a job controlling him!! Hopefully we won't be seeing him for sometime, if he gets the right judge!!
