A man is arrested after an anti-immigration protest in Glasgow’s east end involving people wearing balaclavas. Multiple outlets report the incident occurs on Wednesday evening and includes police responding to the gathering.
Reports describe disruptions across the area, with several busy roads and junctions blocked during the protest. Videos circulating on social media show police grappling with members of the masked group, who are described as part of an anti-migrant demonstration in the Shettleston area. One outlet notes protesters chant slogans such as “we’ve had enough,” while other coverage focuses more on the clashes and the arrest. The accounts generally agree on the setting, the masked nature of the protest, the police confrontation, and the resulting detention of a man, with specific details of the extent of disorder varying by outlet.
