A busy street in Glasgow's city centre has been closed after a man was attacked in the early hours of this morning.

At around 4am this morning a man was assaulted on Gordon Street.

The area has been cordoned off while police carry out an investigation.

A 17-year-old was taken to the Glasgow Royal Infirmary where he was treated for his injuries but later released.

On Wednesday morning, a man was deliberately hit by a car in the nearby Jamaica Street.

The incident happened at 12.45am on Jamaica Street, when the 32-year-old victim became involved in an altercation with a man as he was walking with three male friends.

The man he was arguing with then got into a dark coloured Volkswagen Golf, drove the wrong way up Jamaica Street and deliberately ran him over.

The victim was taken by ambulance to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital to be treated for multiple injuries.

Hospital staff describe his condition as life-threatening.
