A specialist police forensic team have locked down an area outside a block of flats in Clydebank. 

Officers were pictured beside Overtoun Court on Dunswin Avenue in Dalmuir on Wednesday, October 30.

They appeared to be walking in a row combing the grass for clues as part of an ongoing investigation. The area has been cordoned off by cops. 

It comes after a man's body was discovered inside the flats on October 17 and the property was then evacuated on Monday, October 28 after a suspect device was found.

The investigation into the man's death is still ongoing and police did not say whether this latest forensic activity was linked.

Meanwhile, a 26-year-old man has been charged in connection with an alleged firearms offence.

He was due to appear at Dumbarton Sheriff Court today. 

Police Scotland previously confirmed that the two incidents were not linked.

They also confirmed that the new forensic search was "in relation to ongoing investigations".
