A police officer has died in a shooting at a Glasgow police station.
A statement from Strathclyde Police confirmed that the officer had been killed at the Baird Street Police Station.
Sky News understands no-one else is being sought in connection with the incident.
Assistant Chief Constable Bernard Higgins said: "It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that a serving Strathclyde Police officer died today, Monday, 5 November, in an incident where a firearm was discharged at Baird Street Police Office.
"No details of the officer involved will be released until family members have been informed."
He added: "Our thoughts are with the officer's family and friends at this difficult time."
An ambulance was called to the station, which is in the north of the city, at around 11am.
Officers from an independent force, Lothian and Borders Police, have been appointed to oversee an investigation into the death.
Brian Docherty, chairman of the Scottish Police Federation, said: "It is too early to speculate as to the circumstances surrounding the tragic death and our thoughts turn immediately to his family who have lost their loved one and colleagues who have lost a friend."
