A MAN waving a knife around in Great Horton last night has been arrested by police.

Bradford South police reported that they were deployed to a report of a male with a knife.

Officers attended and located the male still with the blade in his hand.

They tweeted that the presence of Taser allowed him to be arrested without incident.

They said the blood on the knife is from a minor cut to the suspect's finger.

He has since been charged with possession of a bladed article and criminal damage to a police cell.
