The injured man was treated in Glasgow Royal Infirmary and has since been released.

Strathclyde Police have the description of only one attacker: a white man aged about 40, who was 5ft 10in with black curly hair.

Detective constable Alan Moir said: “This seems to be a completely unprovoked attack on this man in a street, which would have been particularly busy. I am urging anyone who saw the attack to contact officers as soon as possible.”
