Three people have died after a major incident at a block of flats in Aberdeen.

Dozens of police officers rushed to the scene in the Tillydrone area of the city.

Police confirmed three people had died in the incident.

However, a spokesperson denied an officer was amongst the dead, despite widespread reports on social media claiming a member of the police had fallen from a window in the flats.

Officers have sent up a blue tent outside Donside Court, and forensic teams have arrived at the scene.
