The body of a man has been recovered from the River Clyde in Glasgow. Emergency services attended the Clyde Street area after being alerted to a report of concern for a person at around 6.45am on Wednesday March 18.

Pictures from the scene 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.

Six police vehicles were visibly parked nearby as members of the public gathered on a footbridge, reports the Daily Record.

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

The death is being treated as unexplained but there are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances.
