Officers are in attendance at Sutcliffe Avenue, Grimsby, after being called to a reported firearms incident yesterday evening (Wednesday 6 July).
Two people were taken to hospital for treatment on their injuries, which are not thought to be life-threatening at this stage. Seven people have been arrested in connection with the incident and our investigations remain ongoing.
Officers were quickly deployed to the area and a cordon remains in place to ensure the safety of those nearby.
Senior Investigating Officer DCI Craig Nicholson said: “I’d like to offer reassurance to members of the public and local residents that we believe this to be an isolated and targeted incident with no wider risk to the public.
“Those living in these areas will see an increased number of officers in the area over the coming days carrying out further enquiries and speaking with residents.
“We understand an incident of this nature will cause distress to the local community, so if you are concerned, please come to speak to one of our officers who will be able to assist you.”
Officers are now appealing for anyone who may be able to assist us with our enquiries who has not yet spoken to us to contact us on 101 quoting log 407 of 6 July.

Schools and universities in Lincolnshire recognise the potential benefits, but also the concerns, over the use of artificial intelligence.
The results of the government’s first ever Call for Evidence on Artificial Intelligence in Education’ report were published on Tuesday, November 28. It was open for 10 weeks and closed on August 23 this year, with 567 responses received during that time. Most respondents were “broadly optimistic” about the use of GenAI in education.
Almost two months on from Network Rail stating it had implemented “new cleaning regimes” for its railway bridge on Brayford Wharf East, the same concerns of graffiti, dirt and moss growth are continuing — and we are no clearer on how regularly the bridge is cleaned.
The bridge, which opened in 2019 in a bid to improve public safety on the railway crossing, is regularly used by many commuters and residents in Lincoln, but it has been the topic of a cleanliness discussion for many months now.
