BREAKING: Students evacuated from University College London’s campus

Students reported a police presence as they were shut out of campus buildings


Police were present at UCL’s Gower Street entrance this morning, where students were locked out of campus. 

Crowds of students were seen outside the gates, and a police car was parked nearby. There was a similar scene outside the Student Centre, where the doors were also locked. One student described it as a “lockdown” across campus.

There were no protest signs among the crowds, and it is unclear what prompted the lockout. Students have now been allowed back into university buildings. 

This is a breaking news story and will be updated as more information becomes available. 

The Tab London has contacted Metropolitan Police for comment.
