Live Updates: Police Cordon Off Tesco Car Park in Beeston, Nottingham

A police presence has been reported outside the Tesco car park in Beeston, Nottingham. Shoppers are being denied access to the area, with the incident unfolding at the Tesco supermarket on Station Road on Sunday, October 22.

Witnesses have described four police vehicles obstructing the car park entrance at approximately 8.30 am. An ambulance has also been spotted at the scene, and images reveal that the car park has been cordoned off by the police.

Nottinghamshire Police has been contacted for an official statement, and we will continue to provide real-time updates on this ongoing situation in the following sections.

Reactions from the Scene:

Edith Taylor, an 80-year-old resident from Chilwell who frequently shops in Beeston and at Tesco, expressed her curiosity about the situation. She stated, "I wonder what has happened. I live in Chilwell, and I always shop in Beeston. They didn't even let me through the car park. I don't know what's happened. I had just been into town and I cut down to Tesco, but of course, I noticed it (the cordon) - but what has happened?"

Another resident, who preferred not to disclose their name, was approaching Tesco when they noticed the cordon. They commented on the occasional crime in Beeston, saying, "I suppose it's like most places, we get things from time to time and then there isn't any. I just noticed as I was walking, and over there is blocked by police, and there's a police car there. It definitely will affect the car park, causing significant disruptions since it's usually busy."

Nick Beeston, in his 50s, expressed his surprise, saying, "There's police all down there. I just found out about it. It's usually quite quiet on a Sunday morning in Beeston. I'm surprised, I suppose I'm not totally shocked until I find out what happened. It suggests it's something quite serious with the police cars and the fact that it's all taped off."

Car Park Closure:

Due to the ongoing incident, the car park is currently unavailable to the public this morning. Anyone intending to park there will need to seek alternatives within the town. Stay tuned for live updates on this developing situation.
