"Emergency services were in attendance, and a man was arrested at the scene," a police spokesperson has said.

A man, in his 40s, was arrested by police under suspicion of assault, police have confirmed.

In Sainsbury's, a woman was assaulted by a man whom threw a glass jar at her head for no apparent reason.

The East of #England #Ambulance Service (#EEAST) said: We sent an ambulance, and a rapid response vehicle. One patient was transported to #Norfolk & #Norwich #University #Hospital for further care."

Some have taken to social media saying that a gun may had have been used, however, no firearm was used/involved. The noise allegedly came from the man throwing glass jars at the victim, which had also hit a Perspex screen, and was what had made the loud noise.

The mess left on the scene led to customers feeling concerned, and believing that a firearm was also used, no #firearm was used.

The victim had suffered a head injury from the glass jars thrown at her in the unprovoked attack.

Dwayne Hards (#LCN Founder/#Leader) commented on the incident, he said: "I have heard that a woman was assaulted in an unprovoked attack, this has had me angry, sad, shocked, and appalled. This attack was both sickening, and totally unacceptable, and justice must be served for the victim. I wish the victim a full recovery, and good justice."
