A man and a teenager remain in hospital with serious injuries days after they were assaulted in Glasgow.

Police were called to Raithburn Road around 4.45pm on Saturday where the incidents occurred.

A man aged 38 was rushed to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital following one of the attacks.

A 16-year-old male was then taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary following a second assault.
