A man who died after being found injured on a Glasgow Street on Christmas Day <\/a>has been named locally as Dean Kennedy.<\/p>\n

Emergency crews raced to the scene in the west end of the city at around 11.40pm on December 25, where a 38-year-old man was found injured. He was rushed to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital<\/a> for treatment.<\/p>\n

Tragically, he was pronounced dead<\/a> at the hospital. Officers from Police Scotland have locked down Napiershall Street and North Woodside Road in the Woodside area following the incident.<\/p>\n

Tributes have poured in for Dean, who is understood to be a dad. One friend wrote on Facebook: “Rest easy my good friend taken from our streets but not our hearts. Gutted.”<\/p>\n

Another shared emotional words, writing: “RIP Deano mate thoughts are with family,” while another penned: “What a gem of a boy he was honestly. Can’t believe it.”<\/p>\n

Another added: “His poor family. RIP young chap fly high with your angels,” and another commented: “So sad, what a horrible world we live in. RIP. Poor guy. So sorry for his family and friends.”<\/p>\n

Photos taken at the scene show forensic officers<\/a> dressed in full-body white suits, masks, and gloves, pacing the street which has been sealed off with tape, stopping motorists <\/a>and pedestrians from entering.<\/p>\n

Locals have generally reported a large police presence in the area<\/a> following the fatality. The presence has continued on into Boxing Day.<\/p>\n

One eyewitness previously told Glasgow Live<\/a>: “There’s a big police presence and they have said it’s a serious incident. We live on one of the side streets and weren’t allowed to drive down and park at our flat”.<\/p>\n

Another said: “The road is cordoned off with police tape and detectives wearing white hazmat suits are also at the scene.”<\/p>\n
