Police spent two hours talking a teenager down from the top of a Sutton police building on Wednesday evening.

Nicola Jackson, 18, climbed onto the entrance canopy of Metropolitan Police building Patrick Dunne House, in Chalk Pit Way, Sutton.

Police officers were forced to cordon off the area for more than two hours from around 7pm until police negotiators persuaded her to come down.

Miss Jackson appeared in court on January 6 charged with breaching the terms of bail conditions – a curfew - for a previous offence of affray and possession of an offensive weapon.

She has been remanded on conditional bail and ordered to attend Sutton Magistrates Court on February 10.
