A man has been charged in connection with a serious assault on a Glasgow street.

Emergency services locked down a section of Great Western Road in the city's West End last night following reports of an incident.

A 40-year-old man was found injured and rushed to hospital at about 9.40pm.

Police confirmed a 34-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with the serious assault.

He is due in court today.

It is understood that police cordoned off a section of the pavement, next to a bus stop and Spar shop.

They remained there until after midnight.
