Six people, including a police officer, were injured and a male suspect was fatally shot by the police in an incident in the Scottish city of Glasgow on Friday, according to the Scottish police. While few details were immediately available, the police said the attack was not being treated as terrorism, though the investigation continued. The injured people were taken to the hospital, and the police officer was in critical but stable condition, the police said. Images shared on social media showed at least a dozen police vehicles and armed officers swarming the scene around the Park Inn hotel on West George Street, in an area of the city that is filled with shops and restaurants. More than 100 asylum seekers had been housed at the hotel for the past few weeks during the coronavirus crisis, rights groups say, but it is unclear if any were affected.
