A police cordon was put in place in Ipswich town centre while officers investigated an "alleged incident". 

The alleyway off of Tavern Street was blocked off for a time on Tuesday afternoon. 

A spokesman for Suffolk police said: "A police cordon was briefly put in place on Tuesday while officers investigated an alleged incident which occurred in the early hours of Tuesday morning."

Police tape was on both sides off the alleyway in Hatton Court and did not affect people using the high street. 

A forensic van was also spotted nearby while the police cordon was in place.

Enquiries are still ongoing.
