A popular cafe has had to close its doors today due to a police incident. 

Scran, based in the East End of Glasgow, took to its Instagram story to write: "Currently been forced to close on our busiest day of the week. Sorry scranners." 

The post was accompanied by a sad face emoji and a video showing a large police presence on the street.

The council approved a march involving 70 participants from the Bridgeton Apprentice Boys of Derry.

According to Glasgow City Council's public processions page, the group was planned to go through Cathedral Square, John Knox Street, Duke Street, Bellgrove Street, Abercromby Street, London Road, Bridgeton Cross, James Street, MacKeith Street, and Tullis Street.

Speaking to the Glasgow Times, Scran said: "Unfortunately we were forced into closing today because of the incident on London Road.

"As we were caught directly between the two factions and on police advice, I took the decision to close ASAP as I wasn't willing to put my staffs or customers safety at risk.

"As it's our busiest day of the week we've suffered huge losses as I had five staff in and all the food prepped for a busy Sunday. So a lot of food waste also.

"If we were informed about this even yesterday I could have put damage limitations in place and closed all day but nobody informed me of this planned gathering which was obviously known about by the police and council."

We previously reported that an eyewitness said the presence appeared to be a barricade for the march.
