ATS rules say you can have a Breaking News and a "normal" thread on the same subject, so it's all good.

Sad to say though, there will be casualties - A pub, on a Friday night in Glasgow, with a live band is going to be somewhat packed, not to mention the flight crew of the Police chopper.

BBC News claiming there were around 120 people in the pub, and there are reports of multiple injuries....thankfully the helicopter didn't explode on impact.
