Red Alert Threat causes immediate evacuation at Old Trafford ahead of Man Utd vs Bournemouth

The Theatre of Dreams has been partially emptied after a 'code red' security alert, though no official reason has yet been given, with kick-off set for a delay

Old Trafford has been partially evacuated ahead of Manchester United's Premier League encounter with Bournemouth due to a suspect package found in the north-west corner of the stadium.

After a 'code red' operation was announced over the PA system,

the Stretford End and the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand were both emptied, while the south and east stands have seen fans asked to remain in their seats.

 

Kick-off was delayed, with no immediate information as to the next steps to be taken.

 

Though all games on the Premier League's final day were due to begin at the same time, the rest of the day's fixtures - including Manchester City looking to hold off United's push for a place in the top four in their trip to Swansea City - are set to go ahead on time.
