Police seal off Kilmarnock park this morning
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.
