Dozens of ‘armed’ police have reportedly swooped on a Doncaster residential street as part of an operation – but force bosses say they are unable to release further details on the raid.

Residents of Westbourne Gardens in Balby reported “six armed response” vehicles in the street on Tuesday night.

A South Yorkshire Police spokesman confirmed that officers had visited the street and added: “Police were in Westbourne Gardens as part of a police operation.

“We’re unable to give any further information on this.”
