We have now arrested a man on suspicion of affray and of possessing an imitation firearm with intent to cause fear of violence.

The arrest follows an incident in Bristol on Thursday 22 October in which police firearms were discharged and a man injured, leading to a mandatory referral to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).

The arrested man, who is in his forties, remains in hospital, under police guard.

A cordon remains in place at an address in Fishponds Road, Eastville, pending the completion of forensic examination and searches.
