Our thoughts are with the crew of @policescotland SP99 helicopter that has crashed in Glasgow - hoping everyone is alright.

He would later tell the BBC:It’s a well established Glasgow pub. It’s a horrible, horrible scene, but well done to the folk who were here. Everyone formed a chain of people from inside the pub to outside, and the fire brigade and everyone were here very quickly.
My thoughts are with everyone affected by the helicopter crash in Glasgow - and the emergency services working tonight.
