A man has been charged in connection with disorder offences after a protest outside Celtic Park turned violent last weekend.
The 36-year-old was arrested by police as part of their ongoing investigation into the gathering at the Hoops ground on Sunday, November 29.
Furious fans gathered to demand that manager Neil Lennon be sacked after a humiliating 2-0 defeat to Ross County in the League Cup.
Three police officers were injured during the incident which was branded “pretty despicable” by First Minister Nicola Sturgeon.
The 36-year-old has been released on an undertaking and a report has been submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
We previously told how a 22-year-old man was also arrested in connection with disorder offences at Parkhead.
A senior police officer has warned that any repeats of the scenes will be dealt with ‘robustly’ amid plans of a second protest tomorrow.
Chief Superintendent Mark Sutherland said: “We are aware of a proposed demonstration outside Celtic Park on Sunday and would urge people to find alternative ways to protest, such as online, to help prevent the spread of coronavirus.
“The Scottish Government regulations are quite clear that these types of protest are prohibited in areas under level four restrictions.
“Our response will be measured and appropriate but we will use enforcement where required.”
The club has erected a barrier around the ground perimeter as they prepare for all eventualities.
