Pair arrested as police continue to look for two men after 'incident' in Glasgow

POLICE have arrested two men after an "incident" on a busy Glasgow city centre street.

Two 30-year-old men have been arrested in connection with an alleged disturbance in the Jamaica Street area. 

The force was alerted to the incident at around 3.30am on Wednesday, January 8.

Due to the incident, Glasgow City Council revealed Jamaica Street was closed shortly after 7am.

The road remained shut for several hours to allow officers to carry out an investigation and it reopened shortly after 11am.

Now, police have revealed enquiries into the alleged disturbance remain ongoing to identify and trace two further men believed to be involved in the incident.

Meanwhile, the images showed the force had taped off the street as well.

Sergeant David McIntosh said: “We’d like to thank the public for their patience and understanding as officers carried out their work in the area.

“Anyone who witnessed anything suspicious on Jamaica Street in the early hours of this morning, or has any information on the incident, should call police on 101, quoting incident 0291 of January 8.

"Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, if you wish to remain anonymous.”
