"Enquiries to establish the circumstances of the incident are ongoing."
The spokesman later said enquires were ongoing and that the force would provide an update as soon as possible.
Neighbours reported seeing police helicopter as they spoke of their shock.
A resident of Oak Drive, who asked not to be named, spoke of their shock at the scene.
The neighbour said: “There were two helicopters - [they've] never seen anything as bad as this."
Another resident described feeling on edge, saying: “I only feel safe here because the police are here.
“It’s scary to think it’s happening here on our doorstep - we heard a helicopter."
