City of London Police descended on Liverpool Street Station over reports of a suspicious package in the area.

The scenes in London’s financial district come just days after a bucket bomb was set off on a London Underground train at Parsons Green Station, west London, injuring 30 commuters.

Emerging videos have shown dog units being brought in to assess the area.
