Officers remain at the scene of a large fire at the disused Odeon building on Dent Street in Hartlepool alongside colleagues from Cleveland Fire Brigade and Hartlepool Borough Council.
Road closures remain in place on York Road, Hart Lane and Raby Road and these are expected to stay closed for some time whilst the incident is dealt with.
A number of properties on Joicey Court have been evacuated and we are continuing to work with housing agencies in relation to this.
There are currently no reports of any injuries. Residents are urged to avoid the area.
Officers would like to thank everyone for their patience and co-operation while emergency services work together to bring this incident to a safe conclusion.
