Football fans clash outside Glasgow pub as cops vow to hunt down thugs

Football fans clashed outside a Glasgow pub as police promised to track down the troublemakers in the latest incident of violence. The confrontation occurred on Maryhill Road just before the Scottish Championship match between Partick Thistle and Hamilton Accies at Firhill.

Video footage online captured the chaotic scenes unfolding outside Munn’s Vaults pub. The clips showed groups of supporters from both teams involved in altercations. Thistle fans were seen barricading themselves at the pub entrance while objects were thrown during the altercation. Most of the Accies fans eventually dispersed, shouting and chanting, with a few staying behind at the pub entrance as it closed shutters.

Authorities responded to the scene, but by the time they arrived, the fans had already dispersed. Police are now working to identify those involved in the disturbance and have launched an investigation into the incident. Police Sergeant Debbie Cameron of Maryhill stated that they have a zero-tolerance policy towards violence and are dedicated to holding those responsible accountable for their actions.

The clash between football fans outside the Glasgow pub highlights the ongoing issue of violence and disorder surrounding sports events.
