A CLUB night broadcast on live radio was forced to stop early after a young woman collapsed outside the venue.

Police also nicked several people on drugs charges at the Arches nightclub in Glasgow during a set by popular DJ George Bowie.

One man was also reported for alleged licensing offences at the club in the early hours of Sunday morning.

It comes just over a year since the nightspot was at the centre of a drugs probe over the ecstasy death of an underage schoolgirl.

Early on Sunday, police pulled the plug on Bowie’s GBX club night at the venue.

The star’s set was being broadcast live on Clyde 1 and was due to run until 4am before cops called a halt at 2.45am.

It meant the station had to move to alternative programming.

Club bosses initially claimed the show was stopped due to “technical difficulties”.

But a spokeswoman later said: “The Arches can confirm that, in consultation with Police Scotland on the night, Saturday’s GBX club was closed earlier than advertised.

“We are not in a position to comment further until a full review of the circumstances has taken place.”

But a police spokeswoman said: “At around 12.40am, police were called to a report that a woman was unconscious outside the Arches nightclub.

“Emergency services attended and the woman was taken to the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.”

The Record understands that the woman was later discharged from hospital.

The spokeswoman continued: “A male has been reported for alleged licensing offences. “There were also several people reported to the procurator fiscal in connection with alleged drugs and alcohol offences.”

In February 2014, schoolgirl Regane MacColl, 17, died after taking a Mortal Kombat ecstasy tablet at the venue.

Her death sparked an investigation that saw one man, 23-year-old Jordan Thomson, being convicted of dealing the same pills at the club on the night she died.

Club bosses also came under intense pressure from police and Glasgow City Council over Regane’s death.

Management agreed to strict licensing measures designed to crack down on underage drinking and drug use at the venue.

They also agreed to police recommendations of formulating a “substantive” drugs policy.

The club also announced a strict over-21s policy, which was scrapped around two months later.

The Record contacted Clyde 1 for comment on the weekend’s incident. But neither the station nor George Bowie provided a statement.
