LONDON (REUTERS) – Police in Scotland evacuated a building on Princes Street in central Edinburgh on Thursday (March 7) after receiving a report of a suspicious package, a day after they blew up a device sent to a Glasgow university.

White postal bags containing small parcel bombs were sent to London’s Heathrow and City Airport, and Waterloo – the capital’s busiest train station – on Tuesday.

On Wednesday police blew up a parcel sent to the University of Glasglow and said it was linked to those received in London.

“We received a report of a suspicious package having been received at a business premises on Princes Street at around 12.30pm today,” Edinburgh Police said on Twitter.

“The building has been evacuated as a precaution & officers are in attendance to progress inquiries. We will provide further updates in due course.”
