A large part of central London's busy Soho area has been evacuated after a suspected Second World War bomb was found at a building site.

Police were called at 1.42pm on Monday to Dean Street which they have cordoned off between Oxford Street and Shaftesbury Avenue after the device was found near the Soho Hotel, reports Sky News.

People in Dean Street's many cafes, restaurants, pubs and offices have been evacuated as the army's bomb squad was called in.
