STV's studios in Glasgow have been evacuated due to a 'suspicious vehicle'.
We previously reported that the Clyde Arc Bridge, Govan Road and Pacific Drive have been closed due to an 'ongoing police incident'.
Now STV reports that their offices have been affected following the nearby discovery.
The broadcaster's headquarters have been evacuated while residents living nearby have also been told to vacate their homes.
Reporter Hannah Brown shared footage of the scene on X, formerly Twitter, following the evacuation.
