He was further arrested for breaching legislation from the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act and for vehicle interference.

The man was sectioned under the mental health act and remains in the care of medical professionals, the force said.

He has been bailed pending further inquires until late December.

The House of Commons last met on September 12th and the Lords on September 13th, with both houses in recess for the party conferences.
