A student who was at the scene told The Durham Tab: "I was walking home at around 10 via the Bailey. As I was coming up to Hatfield I saw a police van with people crowding around it. There were two police officers, one of whom was talking to the Porters. The police van had its doors open, and I could hear voices at the back of the van. I could just about make out a figure in the back of the police van".

Porters have so far declined to comment on the situation. The Durham Tab has contacted the police constabulary for more information. Updates to follow.
