Armed officers and a helicopter were called after reports of a man brandishing two large knives near a Bucks school.

Despite the significant police presence, officers were unable to find the man who is also said to have thrown cans of alcohol resulting in minor injuries.

Investigating officers believe that this incident started outside The Happy Shopper on Serpentine Court near the Sir Herbert Leon Academy in Bletchley with officers being called at 11.25am yesterday (April 15).
