Leeds United's Elland Road stadium in lockdown after 'security threat' - everything we know so far

Police closed off Elland Road stadium today after reports of a 'security threat' received last night.

West Yorkshire Police officers barred off the entrances to the home of Leeds United while they investigated whether the security threat was credible. Police said they received reports of the threat at 9.49pm yesterday (Thursday, March 23).

A barrier was still up outside the stadium as of around 2pm today (Friday, March 24), with several police vehicles still present. The road looks to have reopened since though a cordon is still in place at the scene.
