    A police helicopter crashed into a busy city centre pub in Glasgow leaving scores of customers desperately trying to escape the bar.

    Rescue teams raced to the riverside Clutha Vaults pub, where revellers were enjoying a live music gig, at around 10.30pm on Friday evening amid reports of “multiple injuries”.

    Labour's international development spokesman Jim Murphy said: “I saw a pile of people clambering out of the pub in the dust. No smoke, no fire, just a huge amount of dust. I got out of my car and just tried to help people.”

    He added that people had formed a human chain to help carry unconscious people out of the pub.....

    What an odd and tragic thing. Glasgow will be in my prayers.

    No deaths reported, hopefully this will remain the case.

    "He added that people had formed a human chain to help carry unconscious people out of the pub....." :thumbsup:
