EMERGENCY services are responding to reports of incidents at two Tube stations and on a bus in London.

A statement from the Metropolitan police press office said: "We can confirm that emergency service personnel have responded to reports of an incident on a bus in Hackney Road E2, junction near Colombia Road, E2, Route 26."

A statement from Transport for London at 1.35pm today (Thursday) said: "We are responding to reports of incidents at Warren Street and Oval Underground stations. There are no reports of any casualties at this stage. We have suspended three lines; the Hammersmith and City, Victoria and Northern."

A further incident has been reported at Shepherd's Bush station. All three stations have been evacuated, although London Underground has just denied reports that the network has been closed.
