   LONDON -- A male suspect has been shot dead after armed police responded   
   to an incident believed to involve multiple stabbings in Glasgow,   
   Scotland, Friday.   
      
   Details are scarce at this time, but authorities are saying the situation   
   is contained, and is not being treated as an act of terrorism.   
      
   Assistant Chief Constable Steve Johnson said the incident was ongoing, but   
   there was no threat to the wider public after West George Street, a   
   shopping district where the incident took place, was shut down.

   "I would like to reassure the public that this is a contained incident and   
   that the wider public is not at risk," he said in a statement. "Armed   
   police officers attended the incident and I can confirm that a male   
   suspect was shot by an armed officer."   
      
   Six other people, including a police officer, were injured, and are being   
   treated in a hospital, he said. The police officer is in a "stable but   
   critical" condition.   
      
   "I would like to reassure the public that at this time we are not looking   
   for anyone else in relation to this incident," he added.   
      
   A heavy police and ambulance presence descended on Glasgow City Center on   
   Friday afternoon, local time, in response to reports of multiple   
   stabbings.   
      
   "Emergency services are currently dealing with an incident on West George   
   Street in Glasgow," the Glasgow Police Department tweeted Friday. "The   
   street is currently closed off and the public are asked to avoid the area   
   at present. The situation is contained at this time and there is no danger   
   to the general public."

   Nicola Sturgeon, the First Minister of Scotland, requested that the public   
   follow the police force's advice so they could deal with the incident.   
      
   "The reports from Glasgow City Centre are truly dreadful. My thoughts are   
   with everyone involved," she posted on Twitter. "I am being updated as the   
   situation becomes clearer. Please help the emergency services do their   
   jobs by staying away from the area - and please don’t share unconfirmed   
   information."   
      
   The prime minister of the U.K., Boris Johnson, said he was "deeply   
   saddened" by the "terrible" incident. Sir Keir Starmer, the leader of the   
   opposition Labour Party, said the reports were "extremely concerning."
