UK Terror Alert at Manchester Airport
Police have used a Taser gun to arrest a man under the Terrorism Act and carried out a controlled explosion on a suspect package at Manchester Airport.
Officers were called at about 0830 BST and arrested the man after a struggle on the apron, where planes are parked.
The BBC understands a man had been seen with a package underneath a plane.
Parts of terminals one and two were evacuated and closed, but the airport later reopened and advised passengers to report as normal.
