A large police presence has been spotted in a residential street.

Officers, paramedics, and the fire service were called to Alexandra Road in Sheerness on the Isle of Sheppey this afternoon.

A KentOnline reporter at the scene said there were two police vehicles and a forensics van along the road.

Part of the road and some properties have now been cordoned off.

One witness described seeing emergency services in the road before being told to move back.

A police spokesman said: “Kent Police was called by South East Coast Ambulance Service at 11.34am, to a suspected medical incident at a property in Alexandra Road, Sheerness.

“Officers attended the scene along with paramedics and fire crews. An investigation into the circumstances is underway.”

The ambulance service said it couldn’t comment as the call was to a private address.
