Nine people have been taken to hospital after emergency services were called to a primary school in Nottinghamshire.<\/p>\n

Police cars<\/a> and ambulances descended on Jesse Gray Primary School<\/a> in West Bridgford after receiving a call at around 2.17pm on Wednesday. The nature of the incident is currently unclear at this stage.<\/p>\n

Police and a local councillor initially reported two pupils had been taken to hospital, however East Midlands Ambulance Service (EMAS) has now confirmed nine patients were transported to the Queen’s Medical Centre.<\/p>\n

“The caller reported a medical emergency. We sent a number of resources including paramedics in ambulance cars, crewed ambulances and our hazardous area response team,” a spokesperson said, reports the NottinghamshireLive<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“A responder from the air ambulance was also in attendance. Nine patients were transported to Queen\u2019s Medical Centre.”<\/p>\n

Councillor Jonathan Wheeler, who represents West Bridgford South at the county council, said he had been contacted by residents who were “concerned after spotting a large number of ambulances outside Jesse Gray School”.<\/p>\n

“I have spoken with the school and they have a couple of pupils who have gone to hospital for precautionary checks, the parents are aware and I won\u2019t say more for their privacy,” he said. “Given the nature of messages sent and rumours out there the school are happy for me to post this update. Thank you.”<\/p>\n

People on social media have commented on their surprise at seeing a large emergency service presence at the school today. “At least 10 ambulances coming and going when I passed down the street. And 4 police cars,” one said.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Nottinghamshire Police<\/a> said the incident is not believed to be criminal, adding officers were at the scene in a supportive capacity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Police cars and ambulances descended on Jesse Gray Primary School in West Bridgford after receiving a call this…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":619762,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[390,49,50,1904,51,47,52,48],"class_list":["post-619761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-breaking-news","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-schools","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/619761","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=619761"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/619761\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/619762"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=619761"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=619761"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=619761"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
