Transcript

00:00Morning Sheffield, it's Alistair from the Sheffield Star and I'm speaking to you

00:03from the junction of Nether Shire Lane, Godrick Road and Perkin Road up in

00:07Shire Green area. As you might be able to see behind me there's quite an extensive

00:10police scene this morning. This is the result of a incident around 8 p.m.

00:14yesterday which I believe to be a stabbing. We've been speaking to

00:17residents in the area who say around 8 p.m. yesterday a woman was at home she

00:21was with her kids when she heard a lot of screaming outside. When she came to a

00:25window she saw a man there asking people for help saying I need help I need an

00:28ambulance and there might have even been a car that drove away from the scene quite

00:32quickly but we get to confirm that. Police arrived at the scene very soon afterwards

00:35and this cordon was set up and this has been the case now for approaching 12

00:39hours. Despite this very large police scene it has interrupted with people's

00:43day. This is a junction between three roads and people trying to get to school

00:47get to work have been quite grievously interrupted. That being said from what I've

00:50been here this morning it's quite a calm scene. Police are pursuing their work

00:53quite smoothly and there doesn't seem to be any interruptions but quite a scary

00:57scene for residents in the area. We're trying to find out more about it this

01:01morning and we'll be able to bring you more about it as it happens.
