Despite the attack taking place in a walled park on one side of the town centre, all major streets into Reading have been cordoned off.
This is forcing people to take a long detour around the edge of town to get to Broad Street, the main shopping street.
One of the policemen patrolling the cordon said it would only be for today, because there was blood in some of the roads.
