A high street bank has reopened after it was closed because of a broken door lock.

Customers were being turned away from HSBC in High Street, Huntingdon on Thursday morning (September 18) because staff had been locked out.

The town centre bank was closed for more than two hours after the lock broke on the front door. It had been due to open as normal at 9.30am but it did not open until 1pm.

A sign was put up on the door saying it was closed due to "unforeseen circumstances".

Staff outside the bank told The Hunts Post everything was under control and they were waiting for a locksmith.
