Shoppers at one of Bristol's largest supermarkets had to be evacuated from the store this morning after reports that a man began threatening staff with a knife.
Police rushed to the Asda store at Longwell Green at around 10am, as shoppers and staff left the store. One eyewitness posted on social media: "Avoid Asda Longwell Green at the moment. Someone running around with a knife and the store has been evacuated."
Police attended and managed to calm the man and he was also cared for by ambulance crews who arrived soon after.
