Glasgow Airport in lockdown as police and firefighters rush to 'suspicious package'

Part of Glasgow Airport has been closed off due to a "police incident", with hundreds of passengers left in limbo.

Officials have yet to confirm what has happened, but witnesses say they believe a suspicious package has been found.

It has led to "wall to wall" queues as disgruntled customers hit out over a lack of information.

A Police Scotland spokesperson told The Mirror that the terminal building as been closed "as a precaution", but did not elaborate.

"The terminal building has been closed as a precaution, however, not evacuated. No further details available at this time."

He tweeted: "Glasgow airport still appears to be closed. Fire brigades outside. No information being provided for passengers queuing outside."

Alexander Pugantsov, who is waiting for a flight, said there were long queues as a result.

He wrote: "Security shut because of a “police incident” at Glasgow Airport this morning.

"Not sure what’s happened but the queues are from wall to wall and not moving."
