‘Literally a load of armed police stormed in with kind of stun grenades and carried him out. 

‘I think one person was stabbed.’  

Update: Armed police arrest

Avon and Somerset Police said: ‘Officers were called to a petrol station in Hengrove, Bristol, this morning, after a report of a man armed with a knife at the location. After two hours of negotiations, officers safely detained a man.

‘People in the area may have heard a number of bangs which came from police distraction devices being deployed and a baton round that was discharged. These were minimal force options and presented the least risk to the public, the suspect and officers in bringing the situation to a safe conclusion.https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?gdpr=0&us_privacy=1—&client=ca-pub-2427099653703778&output=html&h=300&adk=2141876619&adf=2880600960&pi=t.aa~a.1834861711~i.45~rp.4&w=360&lmt=1631201967&num_ads=1&rafmt=1&armr=3&sem=mc&pwprc=4779063894&psa=1&ad_type=text_image&format=360×300&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F2021%2F9%2Fupdate-armed-police-arrest-knifeman-who-took-terrified-staff-hostage-at-petrol-station-photos.html&flash=0&fwr=1&pra=3&rh=275&rw=330&rpe=1&resp_fmts=3&sfro=1&wgl=1&fa=27&adsid=ChAI8OHmiQYQkMCJsMKosN5ZEkgAU_Bnjg3H7MSKyJGQLHDhiA54I6OepqB7uqqACaD9ksWXs3V-gXIz2kSDSOow_1flqjdHKt4oCEpf1Of3kX5Nz2ULvPt8wdQ&uach=WyJBbmRyb2lkIiwiOSIsIiIsIkluZmluaXggWDY1MEIiLCI5Mi4wLjQ1MTUuMTE1IixbXSxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbF0.&tt_state=W3siaXNzdWVyT3JpZ2luIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9hdHRlc3RhdGlvbi5hbmRyb2lkLmNvbSIsInN0YXRlIjo3fV0.&dt=1631201965064&bpp=27&bdt=7138&idt=28&shv=r20210901&mjsv=m202109010101&ptt=9&saldr=aa&abxe=1&cookie=ID%3D6f62d75ac2f0c0c6-2251d019a8c80035%3AT%3D1622665487%3ART%3D1622665487%3AS%3DALNI_MZ85Ep3SvTaGfc8Juk8Onrd6Hwi6g&prev_fmts=0x0%2C360x300%2C360x300%2C360x300%2C360x300%2C360x300%2C360x300%2C360x788%2C360x616%2C360x90&nras=9&correlator=3263029456083&frm=20&pv=1&ga_vid=1187515804.1622665486&ga_sid=1631201961&ga_hid=1088200103&ga_fc=0&u_tz=60&u_his=3&u_java=0&u_h=800&u_w=360&u_ah=800&u_aw=360&u_cd=24&u_nplug=0&u_nmime=0&adx=0&ady=4369&biw=360&bih=616&scr_x=0&scr_y=93&eid=31062507%2C21067496%2C31062297&oid=3&pvsid=4454921036422010&pem=777&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F&eae=0&fc=1408&brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C360%2C0%2C360%2C616%2C360%2C616&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&abl=NS&fu=128&bc=31&jar=2021-09-09-14&ifi=8&uci=a!8&btvi=7&fsb=1&xpc=yCi69Pmi3U&p=https%3A//www.lindaikejisblog.com&dtd=2230
