“Officers did a fantastic job to quickly locate and arrest two suspects after the report was made to Nottinghamshire Police.

“We are now working to establish the circumstances and I am appealing for anyone who may have seen something suspicious in the area at the time to report it to us on 101 quoting incident number 823 of 5 April 2021.”
