Three people have been murdered during a suspected terror attack in Glasgow’s city center, according to the Telegraph.
A male suspect reportedly stabbed several people, including a police officer, before being shot dead by an armed officer. The incident is believed to have taken place at the Park Hotel, where more than 20 emergency response vehicles were congregating downtown. But details aren’t yet available.
AP reported:
“The police have just confirmed that at this stage they are not treating this as a terrorist incident,” she said. “But of course, there are still details yet to be determined.”
Sturgeon said she had spoken with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson who expressed his concern and sympathies.
“It’s been a dreadful afternoon for the city of Glasgow,” Sturgeon said. “Clearly there is already much speculation around this incident, which remains under investigation.”
“All of us should bear them in mind, bear their families in mind and make sure we focus on all of the great things that bring our city together,” Sturgeon said.
“I would urge everyone to avoid such speculation, to not share potentially harmful or upsetting material on social media and to follow police advice while investigations are underway,” she added.
