No-one one was reported to have been injured during the incident, West Yorkshire Police said.

There have been several police incidents at Asda and its petrol station over the course of the year.

In March, a customer tried to stab himself in the store, ram raiders smashed into a fuel kiosk in August and in September, men armed with weapons including an axe and a shotgun jumped security guards delivering cash.
