Kilmarnock
Dunelm shop and cafe ordered to close down by authorities
Scottish Gas has issued a closure order to Dunelm.
A well-known Kilmarnock store has been told to close by the authorities, yet it is still closed.
There have been rumours that Dunelm at Glencairn Retail Park in the town has closed due to a gas leak.
Teams are working nonstop to resolve the problem since the alert was initially triggered last week.
While SGN personnel are working at the side of the store, a portion of Holmquarry Road has been entirely closed.
Workers at the scene have excavated different sections of the road.
The alleged gas leak has not impacted any other stores, and they are still operating as of right now.
It’s understood that authorities closed the store on Wednesday, and it hasn’t opened back up.
The window has a notification that says, “Closed until further notice by Scottish Gas order.” For updates, please visit our Facebook page. I apologise for any trouble this may have caused.
The preseason preparations for both Ayr United and Kilmarnock will include a match at Somerset Park between the fierce rivals.
Days before they take on their opponents from Ayrshire on Thursday, July 11, The Honest Men will play a glamorous friendly against Scottish champions Celtic under their new North Stand.
With Scott Brown’s team hoping to kick off their 2018 Championship campaign with a bang, this is a big week to usher in the new development at Somerset. With the signings of George Oakley, Jay Henderson, Harry Stone, and Anton Dowds, United has already been busy in the summer transfer market.
While Brown’s revamped team continues to take shape, United is nearing completion on contracts for at least two more players. Additionally, they will face two significant early tests at the start of July when they play a double header against Kilmarnock and Celtic. In due order, information about ticket sales will be released.
The local green space has been overrun by police this morning.
A Kilmarnock park has been cordoned off by police. Playpark near the football pitches of Dean Thistle Football Club is currently manned by officers. A significant police presence has also been observed in nearby Townholm, with multiple police cars parked close to Bonnyton Thistle’s ground.
Dog walkers have stated that officials have restricted access to several areas of the park, telling residents that it is a “crime scene.” Several places immediately off Dean Road and Dean Street have police tape posted.
In the vicinity of the scene, one cop was also observed monitoring the field close to the river. We have reached out to Police Scotland for a response.
At the scene, the 62-year-old was declared deceased.
According to police, a guy was discovered deceased in Kilmarnock this morning.
At approximately six in the morning, officers hurried to the Hurlford Road area of the town in response to a complaint of a person’s worry.
A 62-year-old male was declared deceased at the site, and emergency services were among those who were called to the scene.
Although the death is still being investigated for unknown causes, officials say there is no reason to suspect anything.
“We were called around 6am on Friday, August 25, to a report of a concern for person in the Hurlford Road area of Kilmarnock,” a Police Scotland spokesperson stated.
After emergency personnel arrived, a 62-year-old male was declared deceased on the spot.
Nearly four hours after the alarm was raised with rescue workers, the road and adjacent streets are still crawling with police. “The death is currently being treated as unexplained but not believed to be suspicious. Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances.”
A car was pulled over in another area of the city, sparking a police pursuit.
Authorities have verified that, shortly before 3:30 p.m. yesterday, an automobile was stopped on Western Road in the town.
After a police pursuit, a guy was taken into custody in Bellfield’s Cheviot Place, over three and a half miles away.
It was made public yesterday that there was a significant police presence on the Bellfield estate and that officers were being assisted by a force aircraft.
Additionally, a witness saw police pursuing a man through nearby gardens.
Since then, Police Scotland has stated that investigations are still underway and that a 37-year-old male has been arrested in relation to driving offences.
An official from Police Scotland stated: “On Monday, May 13, 2024, at around 2:55 p.m., officers made an attempt to pull over a vehicle on Western Road, Kilmarnock.
“There was a brief chase that ended at Bellfield, Kilmarnock’s Cheviot Place.
“A 37-year-old man was arrested in the vicinity for traffic offences, and investigations are still ongoing.”
