It is not known if anyone was seriously injured during the incident but there was no police cordon in the surrounding area when Nottinghamshire Live arrived.<\/p>\n
A picture posted online showed a dozen officers interspersed in a peaceful crowd on South Parade, but this seemed to be taken after the incident had dispersed.<\/p>\n
Later that evening two police cars, including a dog unit, were stationed on the street and police were patrolling the Winter Wonderland – although the latter is fairly normal.<\/p>\n
Nottinghamshire Police has been contacted for confirmation on the nature of the incident.<\/p>\n
Trams were briefly prevented from running due to the trouble around the Old Market Square stop, according to a post by operator NET at 6.11pm, but the network was fully operational by 6.51pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Groups of teenagers, who had lanyards on them that resembled those handed to college or school attendees, were…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":293777,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[924,59,57,58,50,102305,102306,56,54,55,115374],"class_list":["post-293776","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-kingdom","tag-crime","tag-gb","tag-great-britain","tag-greatbritain","tag-news","tag-nottingham-city-centre","tag-nottinghamshire-police","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-winter-wonderland"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293776","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=293776"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293776\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/293777"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=293776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=293776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=293776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
