Man seriously assaulted in unprovoked gang attack in Springburn

A man was left with serious facial injuries after being targeted by a gang in unprovoked attack in Springburn.

The 35-year-old man was at the rear of Balgrayhill Community Centre in Balgrayhill Road when he was approached by a group of four or five men aged around 18 to 20 who assaulted him and then made off. The incident happened between 6pm and 8pm on Monday June 28.

He sustained serious injuries and was treated at Glasgow Royal Infirmary.

“I am appealing to anyone in the area at the time who may have seen something to come forward. Also, if anyone was driving and may have captured footage on dash-cam that could help with our enquiries, please get in touch.

“If you can help please contact us on 101, quoting incident 3134 of Tuesday, 29 June, or make a call anonymously to the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
