Armed Police Surrounded Oakham Apartment Oakham Rutland

            On October 26, 2023,, armed police surrounded and searched an apartment near Burley Road in Oakham, Rutland, England. Police dog handlers and a drone were also seen in the area. This is the second time within 24 hours that armed police have been active in the Burley Road area.

According to a spokesperson for Leicestershire Police, the police were looking for a person they wished to speak to. However, the person was not found in the apartment. The spokesperson also said that it is highly likely that police will continue to be active in Oakham until the person is found.

Eyewitnesses reported seeing armed police officers surrounding the apartment building and shouting for a person to come out. They also reported seeing police dog handlers and a drone in the area. The police operation lasted for several hours.

It is not yet clear why the police are looking for this person, or what they are suspected of doing. However, the police have said that there is no risk to the public. The person does not reside at the property and it has been very distressing for the person who does live at the address.

Residents Urged to Be Vigilant

Leicestershire Police have urged residents in Oakham to be vigilant and to report any suspicious activity to the police. They have also said that anyone who has any information about the person they are looking for should contact the police on 101.
