A man has been arrested on a busy city street during a Norwich police patrol.

Officers arrested a man in his 40s at around 2.40pm yesterday in Rampant Horse Street, on suspicion of failing to appear in court. 

The incident took place while 'hotspot' patrols were being carried out in the market area. 

It follows two arrests made by officers in Vauxhall Street and Jenny Lind Park on Sunday and Monday to tackle inner city crime.
