Police are investigating after structures in Glasgow's Southside were vandalised.

Officers were called to two spots this weekend - to a wall in King's Park and a bridge.

The bridge, on Moray Place, near Pollokshields West train station, appears to have been spray-painted with green, white and orange colours, however, the graffiti has now been removed from the King's Park gates on Carmunnock Road.
