Passersby reported hearing 'screaming and shouting' on Sunday, March 7 before more than ten police cars and ambulances rushed to the scene.
Catherine Boyle, 37, a mother-of-one, said: 'I just saw all the emergency services arrive.
'There was about a dozen police cars and ambulances, it was like something from a movie. The street was lit up with blue lights.
'They cordoned off the area very quickly. There was a lot of screaming and shouting going on.
