Forensics team investigate home in relation to suspicious package

Forensic cops have been seen working at an address in Glasgow in relation to a 'suspicious package' found in Lanarkshire earlier this week.

Police Scotland officers joined the forensics team at the property in Marfield Street, Carntyne, on Wednesday, with part of the area was cordoned off whilst they carried out their investigations, reports Glasgow Live.

The latest incident is believed to be linked to a package found on Mansion Court in Cambuslang on Tuesday night.

An Explosive Ordnance Disposal team (EOD) from the army were called to the scene to remove the package, with a 42-year-old man arrested and charged in connection with the incident.

He was due to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Thursday.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 9.20pm on Tuesday, November 15, officers were called to Mansion Court, Cambuslang, where a suspicious package was discovered.

“EOD attended and made the item safe before removing it for examination.

“A 42-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with the incident.”
