Suffolk Constabulary have issued a statement in relation to yesterday’s Blue Action protest at Playford Road.

The demonstration, which took place outside the perimeter of the training ground, led to signage on the fence catching fire after it was hit by a flare. As a result, training was suspended for 10 minutes as a safety precaution.

The statement reads: “Police were called at 10.30am yesterday (Monday 15th February) to reports of a number of people setting off flares on Playford Road in Ipswich.

“Those involved reportedly left the scene on foot, heading towards Rushmere Heath.

“Police attended and searched the area but found no trace of any suspects. Enquiries are ongoing.

“Anyone with any information about this incident or who saw anything at the time is asked to contact the Police quoting incident number 88 of Monday 15th February.”
