Police Scotland has charged eight more people over disorder linked to Celtic's title celebrations in Glasgow, taking the total number of arrests to 32. Officers say two members of the force were seriously injured during the chaos and three members of the public needed hospital treatment. Superintendent Derrick Johnston said the work is still continuing, with more people yet to be identified.
Police inquiry still widening
Johnston said: "Today's operation is the result of extensive work over a number of weeks and we will continue to carry out inquiries. I hope this day of action makes it clear to those involved that we will not give up and you will be brought to justice."
He added: "Significant enquiries remain ongoing into this disorder which impacted communities, businesses, police officers and supporters. I would urge anyone with any information to contact us."
Police had already published images of 58 people they wanted to interview, then asked to speak to 83 individuals after a third wave of CCTV releases. The scale of that list is why this case is still moving, and the arrest total has already climbed from the four made in raids across Glasgow and Lanarkshire on 12 August.
The disorder followed Celtic's Premiership title win earlier this year. Around 3,000 supporters gathered in the Trongate area after the celebrations, and police say the investigation remains active as they continue to seek others linked to the scenes.
What police have said so far
The latest charges are part of a wider operation that has run over several weeks. Police Scotland has not said the inquiry is finished, and the current total of 32 arrests suggests the work is still well short of a final count.
The public appeal remains open, and anyone with information has been asked to contact police. That is the stage the case is at now, with more interviews and more identification work still to come.
