A suspicious package found at Glasgow University shares similarities with small improvised explosive devices sent on Tuesday to major transport hubs of London, the police have confirmed.

“There are similarities in the package, its markings and the type of device that was recovered in Glasgow to those in London. Therefore, we are now treating it as being linked to the three packages being investigated by the Met in London and both investigations are being run in tandem,” the police said.
