Part of a Norwich road was sealed off for several hours amid a police investigation.
A number of police cars and a Norfolk Constabulary Forensic Services van parked within an area cordoned off with blue and white police tape in Chambers Road in Mile Cross on Sunday morning.
The cordon blocked off the middle part of the street, with a number of houses within the area which has been sealed off by police.
Police have yet to release any details of what has happened, but confirmed they were called to the street at about 9pm on Saturday.
