From the BBC:

Trading in Google shares has been suspended after the internet giant released its third-quarter results early by mistake.

Third-quarter profits fell 20% on a year earlier to $2.18bn (£1.35bn) and below analysts' expectations.

Google blamed financial printing firm RR Donnelley for filing an early draft of the results, which had been expected after the closing bell.

Shares in Google were down 9% when trading in the stock was suspended.

Shares had fallen as much as 10.5% at one stage.
