THERE was a large police presence in a city street during the morning school drop off.
About five police cars were in Timberdine Avenue and blocked off the street this morning (Wednesday).
One eyewitness said it caused traffic "carnage" as it took place during the school run.
Blessed Edward Oldcorne Catholic College sent out a text message to parents reassuring them.
Neighbours said officers were at a home opposite Blessed Edwards at about 8am.
One eyewitness said: "There were about five police cars, and the traffic was all built up the road but I do not know what it was about.
"Police were blocking the road.
"It started at about 8am."
Many residents said there was lots of traffic on the road and teachers and parents could not park their cars.
One counted around eight police officers with one officer wearing blue gloves.
One parent said they received a message from Blessed Edward Oldcorne Catholic College at around 9am this morning reassuring parents.
