Cops have launched a probe after a man 'seriously injured' after a late night attack in a Scots park.

The man was seriously assaulted in Ruchill Park in Glasgow.

He was part of a group of four men who were leaving the green space onto Firhill Road around 10.30pm on Saturday when they came across an argument between two people.

A 27-year-old tried to intervene in the altercation and was beaten- suffering a head injury.

The group were then confronted by another group who assaulted two of the injured man’s friends.

The 27-year-old was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary Hospital for treatment. The others were not injured.

Police are hunting the man and have released a description.

The suspect is described as white, in his late teens to early twenties, with fair hair. He is described as wearing a red t-shirt and dark shorts.

Detective Constable Kevin Ford said: “We are carrying out enquiries in relation to this incident which resulted in a man being seriously injured.

“I am appealing to anyone who saw the groups in the area or anyone matching the above description to get in touch. If you have any home CCTV or dash-cam footage from the area, please check back and see if there is any footage that could assist our investigation."

Anyone with any information is asked to contact officers on 101 quoting incident 4306 of 17 July, 2021
