A suspect has been shot dead by police after six men were injured, including an officer, during a stabbing incident at a hotel housing refugees in Glasgow.
Police Scotland said a male suspect was shot by an armed unit and a 42-year-old officer is in a critical but stable condition.
They have said the incident is not being treated as terrorism. The five other victims are aged 17, 18, 20, 38 and 53.
The Scottish Police Federation (SPF) confirmed a male officer had been stabbed and their family has been informed.
All six injured people, including the officer, are being treated in hospital.
Police said there is no danger to the public, with officers in attendance in West George Street in the city centre.
The incident appeared to happen at the Park Inn Hotel in West George Street.
Positive Action In Housing said the hotel was housing refugees for the Mears group.
In a statement on Twitter, Assistant Chief Constable Steve Johnson said: "The individual who was shot by armed police has died.
"Six other people are in hospital for treatment to their injuries including a police officer, who is in a critical but stable condition.
"We are continuing to deal with the incident on West George Street #Glasgow and would ask people to avoid the area.
"We would urge the public not to speculate about this incident or share unconfirmed information on social media."
In an earlier tweet, he said the incident had been contained and the wider public were not at risk.
"I would like to reassure the public that at this time we are not looking for anyone else in relation to this incident," he said.
David Hamilton, SPF chairman, said: "Whilst there is understandable and considerable public interest in the major incident in Glasgow earlier today, our focus at this time is in assisting the family of our colleague who has been seriously injured.
"This is obviously an anxious time for them and we ask that they be left alone as their attentions are very obviously directed towards the care of their loved one.
"Our thoughts, prayers, and best wishes are with our colleague, his family and friends, and all colleagues affected by this incident at this time."
Scotland First Minister Nicola Sturgeon tweeted: "Please follow advice to avoid the West George Street area of Glasgow while @policescotland deal with this ongoing incident."
Downing Street said the Prime Minister Boris Johnson's "thoughts remain" with those injured during the incident.
A Number 10 spokesman said: "The Prime Minister has this afternoon spoken with First Minister Nicola Sturgeon about the incident in Glasgow.
"He has also held a meeting with the Home Secretary and senior police officers, in which he was updated.
"The Prime Minister thanked the Chief Constable of Police Scotland, Iain Livingstone, for the exceptional bravery of his officers at the scene.
"The PM's thoughts remain with the injured and their loved ones."
