The Police Media Centre is currently dealing with a high volume of queries, and we have reduced staffing numbers over the next two days due to illness.
Despite our reduced capacity, we will be doing our best to answer your queries but we may have to prioritise urgent events and requests, and we may close the centre earlier in the evening.
We may not have the immediate capacity to respond to event number checks or requests for updates on non-urgent matters, so please bear with us.
We appreciate your patience and understanding.
