During the incident, Inspector for South Devon Adrian Leisk said: “The immediate vicinity has been evacuated and the area cordoned off, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with this ongoing incident, but we do ask that the public remain clear of the area to allow us to undertake negotiations safely and without distraction.”
