The cordon was spotted by hundreds of people going to and from Tramlines.

A police cordon in Sheffield city centre last night is believed to be over a medical incident linked to the drug spice.

A large number of police officers as well as an ambulance were called to High Street last night, near to McDonald’s. It also led to a police cordon around a small area just outside the fast food chain.

SYP has now confirmed the response was over a medical incident, believed to be linked to spice. It is understood a man was taken to hospital as a result.
