A man has died and another is fighting for life after an incident at a house in Clydebank.

Cops were called at about 12.05am to report of two men seriously injured within a house in Perth Crescent.

The 25 year-old man was pronounced dead a short time later. 

Hospital staff describe the condition of the 34 year-old man as critical.
