Police in Glasgow have launched an appeal in relation to an attempted murder.

A 19-year-old man sustained serious injuries following a disturbance on London Road, near to Helenslea Park, on Sunday 2 September 2018. 

He was attacked by a group of young people, aged between 14 and 17. 

The man then went into a nearby bar and police were called. He was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary, where he remains in a stable condition. 

Detective Constable Eilidh Marshall, Shettleston Police Office, said: “This incident is being treated as attempted murder due to the seriousness of the man’s injuries. It is vital that we find the person or persons responsible. 

“We believe that the group involved had been in the nearby park throughout the evening prior to the attack. 

“Officers have spoken to a number of people who were in the area last night, however would appeal to anyone we have not spoken to, or anyone with any further information to come forward and contact us.”
