A small West Yorkshire village has been rocked by a huge police manhunt after reports that an armed man was prowling the area.
The village of Menston near Otley was the scene of an intensive operation overnight on Saturday after reports of a distressed man in Burley Road. Police were called to the scene at 11.58pm and early reports suggested that the man may have been armed.
The man was seen on several properties in the area before he was eventually detained through the combined efforts of an armed response unit and local officers. The man was found to be unarmed, he was taken to hospital for treatment and a mental health assessment.
