Commuters and visitors to Tamworth Railway Station were left concerned after armed police officers were spotted in the area.

People took to social media earlier today (Monday, September 18) after spotting the specially-trained officers at the Victoria Road-based station.

But a spokesman from British Transport Police has reassured those commuters, and residents in the town, that 'no incident at Tamworth on our logs'.

The BTP spokesman added: "We do have enhanced patrols at the moment as a result of Friday’s incident at Parsons Green."
