The doors to the nightclub Cocoon were this morning open, with a smattering of what appeared to be blood on the pavement outside, behind the metal barriers and police tape.

It is not known at this stage whether the incident was connected in any way with the club.

Police and paramedics were called to the scene overnight, though the nature of the incident is not yet known.

The Star has contacted Cocoon Sheffield, and is waiting for a response.
