Police locked down several streets in the west end of Glasgow this morning amid reports of 'concern for a person'.
Archerhill Road in the Knightswood area was cordoned off, along with several side streets, as multiple emergency vehicles converged on the scene at around 4am on February 9.
Parents of tots at Pikeman Nursery on the street received text messages advising them that the facility was temporarily closed.
It is understood the nursery was not directly affected.
Locals reported that streets leading into the main road, close to Great Western Road, were blocked off by police cars.
An image of the scene shared on social media showed emergency vehicles closing the road and halting traffic, with two fire engines parked within the cordon.
