Rangers fan disorder images released by police

Police are looking for 17 people connected with Rangers fan disorder in Glasgow's George Square

Police have released images of 17 people they want to trace over violence and disorder in Glasgow after Rangers' Scottish Premiership title win.

The force said 47 officers were hurt after thousands of fans gathered in George Square, with flares set off and missiles thrown.

A total of 28 people were originally arrested over the trouble and police chiefs said "many more" would follow.

Two further arrests were made on Friday.

Det Insp Craig Warren said the latest arrests were "just the beginning" as investigations continue.

Two men, age 34 and 44, have been charged in relation to the disorder and released on an undertaking to appear in court at a later date.

Police have asked anyone who recognises individuals involved to get in touch

Det Insp Warren said: "The public can be confident we are doing everything possible to identify those responsible for the violence and disorder that took place.

"This will take time due to the numbers involved but, rest assured, if you were involved in causing this disorder, violence or anti-social behaviour you will be arrested."

• 'Many more arrests' to follow Rangers crowd trouble

• Police officer fined for attending Rangers fan disturbance

• 'Strict liability' warning to football clubs over fan behaviour

Despite being warned against public gatherings because of the pandemic, thousands of Rangers supporters marched from Ibrox Stadium to George Square.

Earlier this month, former Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf said Scottish football clubs could be held responsible for fan behaviour through strict liability if they were unwilling to tackle issues themselves.

MSPs had questioned the government's response to violence and "anti-Catholic and anti-Irish bigotry" displayed by fans during the title celebrations.

Police called the scenes "disgraceful" and on Friday, said inquiries were continuing.

Broken glass and rubbish covered the square in the aftermath of the violence

The force said officers were reviewing CCTV, videos and images and urged anyone who had captured footage on their phones to get in touch.They highlighted there had been clips of the scenes circulating on social media and called on those who recognised individuals involved to come forward.

Police want to speak to a woman in connection with a "racial incident"

Police have also released an image of a woman who they believe will assist with an investigation into a "racial incident" near Ibrox stadium on the day of the title win.

Anyone with information or images of the incident has been urged to contact police via the non-emergency line or through its online portal.
