Explosions Carried Out On Suspicious Car

A bomb disposal team has carried out a number of controlled explosions on a suspicious car in a Bristol street.

Police were called to Cassell Road, in the Fishponds area of the city, around 4am.

Officers found the car smelt strongly of fuel.

A 200-metre cordon has been set up and around 460 homes evacuated, with many residents moved to a rest centre set up at a nearby school.

A spokesman for Avon and Somerset Police said: "The Explosive Ordnance Disposal team was called to the scene and carried out several controlled explosions on the vehicle.

"This is a normal operational response to incidents of this nature."

Chief Superintendent Geoff Spicer said: "I'm very grateful to residents for their continued co-operation and patience.

"Public safety is a priority for us and the exclusion area was set up as a necessary precaution.

"We'll be carrying out a full and thorough investigation into this incident now the controlled explosions have taken place.

"At this stage we believe this is an isolated incident and could be linked to an ongoing dispute and we're progressing with lines of enquiry.

"The exclusion zone is likely to remain in place until at least 2pm today, so I'd advise people to avoid the area, as there are road closures in place."
