Armed police have evacuated at least 1,000 workers in central London after a suspected bomber stormed an office building and was feared to have taken hostages.

The man, who identified himself as Michael Green, strapped gas canisters to his back before entering the office of an HGV firm on Tottenham Court Road, according to witnesses.

He is understood to have taken four hostages inside Shropshire House, amid claims he had failed a HGV training course and wanted his money back.

The man has now been in the building for two-and-a-half hours, and negotiators are believed to be talking to him by telephone.
