A COLLEGE in Glasgow's west end has been evacuated due to a gas leak.

Fire crews rushed to the campus on Hatfield Drive on Thursday afternoon.

The building has been evacuated on the advice of the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.

The campus will be closed for the rest of the day and tonight's evening classes will also be cancelled.

A spokesman for the college confirmed that contractors are working on the 'low-level' gas leak and the building should be open as usual tomorrow.
