They were called to the Clough Lane area of King's Lynn just after 11am on Saturday, after reports a man had been wounded in an incident.

Pedestrianised Tower Street was full of shoppers, on an unseasonably warm day, as officers cordoned off two alleyways near the Majestic Cinema.

Police said they were trying to 'establish the circumstances surrounding the incident'.

Their initial investigations appeared to be focused on an area outside the Bridge For Heroes contact centre and its memorial garden. The incident is not believed to have involved anyone connected to the Lynn-based armed forces charity, which offers support to veterans.

An alley leading from Tower Street to Sedgeford Lane, behind the Majestic, was also cordoned off and a police dog unit was parked up nearby.

Police tape was taken down and officers left the scene around 4pm, reopening the alleys to shoppers and passers-by again.

In a statement, Norfolk police later said: 'Police are investigating after a man was stabbed in King's Lynn this morning.

'Officers were called at an address in South Clough Lane at 11.09am to reports a man in his 30s had suffered knife wounds following an altercation with another man.
