A man’s body has been pulled from the River Clyde in Glasgow.

Emergency crews raced to the Clyde Street area after being alerted to a report of concern for a person at around 6.45am on Wednesday.

Pictures from the scene shared by the Record earlier today showed a large area at the Broomielaw taped off.

Uniformed officers could be seen standing guard beside the cordon, with a sign warning members of the public that divers were in the water.

Around six police vehicles were seen parked nearby as members of the public gathered on a nearby footbridge.

Sadly, police have now confirmed that the body of a man was later recovered from the river.
