One person was killed and another critically injured in a shooting on board the nuclear submarine HMS Astute.
A man was arrested after the police were called to Southampton docks where the vessel has been berthed since Wednesday as part of a five-day visit.
It’s reported that a crew member shot two of his crew mates before being overpowered.
A police spokeswoman says the incident is not linked to terrorism.
The 318 feet HMS Astute, the UK's newest and largest nuclear submarine, is based at the Faslane Naval Base on the Clyde.
