Reports suggest that a Police Helicopter has crashed through the roof of the Clutha Vaults pub in Glasgow, Scotland, Leaving many injured trapped inside.



A police helicopter crashed into the roof of a popular watering hole in Glasgow, Scotland, leaving debris swirling in its wake Friday night.


Emergency crews rushed to The Clutha pub, and were seen near the door. Initial reports emerged that people could be trapped inside, but they could not be immediately confirmed.


Gordon Smart, editor of the Scottish edition of the Sun newspaper, told Sky News he thought the aircraft could have been a police helicopter.


“There was no fire ball and I did not hear an explosion,” he said. “It fell like a stone. The engine seemed to be spluttering.”


Labour party spokesman Jim Murphy told the BBC that “it’s a horrible, horrible scene,” and described moments of pure chaos.


“I saw a pile of people clambering out of the pub in the dust,” he said. “No smoke, no fire, just a huge amount of dust.”
