A man from East Cowes is in police custody after officers were called to the town's Co-operative store on York Avenue last night (Sunday).

Hampshire Constabulary says it responded to an incident just before 9.30pm.

When they arrived, officers found a man in possession of a knife, as well as damage to the shop.

A 42-year-old was arrested on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon, say Isle of Wight police.
