A driver has been arrested after police recovered a stun gun, extendable baton and knuckleduster from a car following reports of an alleged road rage incident.

Nottinghamshire Police said two of the weapons were reportedly brandished at another driver in a car park in High Grounds Way, Worksop, at about 20:15 GMT on Tuesday.

Officers later located a vehicle and arrested the owner after finding the three items.

The driver, a 60-year-old man, was subsequently arrested on suspicion of possessing an offensive weapon in public, assault and affray.
