A concern for welfare incident on playing fields in Eastleigh prompted a police response.

Officers were called to the fields on Bishopstoke Road shortly after 1.30pm on January 9.

This followed a report for a concern for welfare of a person in the car park.

The individual involved was found by officers and the incident was then dealt with by South Central Ambulance Service.

The news comes after officers dealt with two emergency incidents on the Itchen Bridge on Wednesday evening.

The first was a concern for welfare of a woman who entered the care of officers.

A spokesperson from Hampshire Constabulary said: “We were called at 1.37pm on Tuesday, January 9 to a report of the concern for the welfare of a person in the Bishopstoke Road playing fields car park.

“Officers attended and located the individual involved.”
