A teenager has been arrested after the stabbing of three young men in Glasgow.

Police were called to Greenfield Park football pitches in Duror Street at around 8.20pm on Saturday 27 February.

The three men were taken to hospital. Two were aged 21 while the other was 19 years old. All three had serious injuries and were transported to Glasgow Royal Infirmary.

Police cordoned off the scene and forensic officers combed the pitches for evidence.

Investigations also involved asking those living locally if they had any information and checking CCTV in an attempt to track down all those involved in the incident.

A 19-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection to the stabbings.

He is set to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Tuesday.
