Shocking picture shows car stuck in water at flooded Glasgow park

A shocking picture shows a car which appears to be stuck in the water in a Glasgow park.

In a photo taken at Pollok Park in the Southside, a white vehicle can be seen, in the middle of the flooded playing fields.

White Cart Water, flowing across the greenspace, has flooded the area, which seems to have resulted in the truck being left there.

A local resident told the Glasgow Times: "It's normally just a walkable field."

This comes after several transport links, including train services and motorways have been affected by the severe weather.

A Glasgow City Council spokesperson said: “Heavy rain over the Glasgow area has led to flooding in Pollok Country Park.

“The park is open to visitors with both car parks in operation but people are advised to keep away from next to the White Cart Water, which has burst its banks in places.”
