A schoolboy ran into a shop for help after being stabbed in a Glasgow street.

The 15-year-old was part of a large group of youths gathering in the Thornliebank area of the city when the attack happened.

He sought help in a nearby shop before being taken to the Royal Hospital for Children by a family friend.

The incident happened in Carnwadric Road at around 6.15pm on Sunday.

The suspect is believed to be around 16-years-old, and was wearing a black tracksuit with the hood pulled up.

Detective constable Andy Reid said: “I know that Carnwadric Road was busy at the time this incident took place and therefore I am certain that there would have been people who witnessed this male being assaulted.

“I would urge anyone who witnessed the assault or anyone who has any information on the suspect to contact us.”

If you have any information, call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
