Three people are feared dead after a police helicopter crashed into the roof of an iconic pub in Glasgow city centre.
Dozens have been injured and emergency services had to dragg customers out of the premises after the aircraft fell from the sky 'like a stone'. 
A police officer at the scene said there were a 'few confirmed deaths' but could not say how many.
Staff at Glasgow Royal Infirmary say nine people from the scene are being treated at the hospital with some said to have 'very serious injuries.'
The propeller blades are visible on the top of the roof as firefighters use cherry pickers to examine the site


Eyewitness Fraser Gibson, 34, who was in the pub with his brother to see his former band, said: 
'Midway through their set it sounded like a giant explosion. The room was covered in dust.


'We didn’t know what had happened. We froze for a second; there was panic and then people trying to get out the door.’
