I think Jesus has just popped up in Market Square to tell the local Christians they're all gullible tossers.

Tram crash according to my ex local colleague s.

A tram is definitely derailed but people are saying it can't just be that...

This started around 7:30 when a travel report said all the trams were shut down, but they blamed the weather.
BBC News caught up at 8:30 but nothing since.

Tram crash according to my ex local colleague s.

If he's referring to this, or similar, this photo wasn't from today.

tram derailment, but twitersphere also suggesting stabings and bomb disposal. pictures show a lot of police standing around, so inclined to think there's a lot of exaggeration.

It seems there was a tram derailment yesterday.

Unfortunately it's the top tweet when searching for Nottingham on twitter so a lot of people are taking it as gospel that it was today and spreading it further.

Sky News just shouted down an on-the-ground reporter who seemed to suggest a car drove into a group of people and four were stabbed to death.

An update is imminent apparently. Noises are that something happened around 5am. My brother in law works in the city centre.

Sky News just shouted down an on-the-ground reporter who seemed to suggest a car drove into a group of people and four were stabbed to death.

I also saw this, it was ridiculous. The presenter asks “So what is the latest situation?” and the reporter answers what he’s heard on the ground, and she jumps in and says “you can’t tell us what you’ve heard”. Bizarre stuff.

Summary from Sky...

Police called at 4am.

Two found dead in street.

Police called to another area where a van had run down two people.

Another man found dead in another street.

31-y-o man arrested on suspicion of murder.

As Bozza says, there's been an arrrest on suspicion of murder, so the media has to be careful about how it's reported.

Just seen poor ol Lyn’s interview on BBC. I’m not sure it’s fully sunk in what she’s seen. She’s in for a bit of a rough time ahead emotionally
