London on edge as market briefly evacuated

Leadenhall market in London's financial district has been briefly evacuated after reports of a suspicious package in the area.

On Tuesday City of London Police said a cordon had been put in place around the ornate arcade, home to bars and shops and close to the Lloyd's of London insurance building.

They later said the package had been declared non-suspicious and that the cordons had been lifted.

London authorities remain on edge after a homemade bomb exploded on a busy tube carriage on Friday morning.
