POLICE say one person has been arrested and a 'number' of hate crimes will now be investigated following an anti-racism protest and counter-demonstration in Glasgow.
Saturday's events kicked off around 12pm when protesters came face to face on the city's Buchanan Street.
Thousands gathered in an organised protest by Stand Up to Racism to call out far-right disorder seen on the city's streets on Tuesday.
In the aftermath of Saturday's demonstrations, police say a 53-year-old man has been arrested for threatening a police officer, and several hate crimes will now be looked into.
The force says officers had a significant operation in place throughout the day to ensure the safety of the public and to minimise disruption.
In a statement, Police Scotland said: "A 53-year-old man was arrested for threatening a police officer, and another officer was struck by an egg which had been thrown.
"Individuals were issued with city centre dispersal orders for their conduct following the protest. A number of hate crimes which were reported will now be investigated."
Chief Superintendent Stevie Dolan said: "We did warn that officers would respond decisively and robustly to keep communities safe.
"I want to thank the public for their patience while the demonstration took place."
