The A500 in Stoke-on-Trent is now back open, after it was closed early this morning due to a 'police-led incident'.

National Highways closed a section of the A500 northbound between Hanchurch and Hanford at around 6.30am.

The road reopened at 8.00am but National Highways are still warning of heavy traffic following the closure.

Stoke Nub News has approached Staffordshire Police for more information.
