A man has been arrested in connection with the discovery of a suspect item after homes were evacuated and the bomb squad called out.
Police Scotland said the Navy bomb squad carried out a controlled explosion on a device found when searching a property at Overtoun Court, Dunswin Avenue in Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire, on Monday.
Several properties were evacuated as a precaution and a cordon was put in place, with residents told it was safe to return to their homes around 2.30am on Tuesday.
