Three people are thought to have died, with several others including police officers injured in a Glasgow hotel reportedly being used for asylum seeker accommodation on Friday afternoon as a major incident was declared by the emergency services.

Glasgow city centre was placed on lockdown Friday as paramedics and police rushed to the scene of what is being reported in local media as a mass casualty event, with Glasgow Live reporting a mass stabbing. The incident appears to surround the city’s Park Inn Hotel, with injured individuals carried out of the hotel on stretchers.
