Multiple forensics tents have been pictured at the scene in West London
Police have sealed off a section of the A4 near Heathrow Airport following an incident overnight (June 30). Bath Road, in Cranford, is currently shut to traffic between Great South West Road and The Parkway, leading to queues towards the A30.
A cordon has been in place since shortly after midnight, according to road tracker Inrix, with multiple forensics tents now erected. An N9 bus terminating at Heathrow Terminal 5 can be seen behind the blue-and-white tape.
Photos taken in the last hour show a number of police cars and officers guarding the scene. The nature of the incident is yet to be confirmed by the Metropolitan Police.
Three bus routes are being diverted away from the scene, Transport for London has said. The Metropolitan Police and London Ambulance Service have been contacted for more information.
