Cops are appealing for information after a man was shot in Glasgow in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Emergency services raced to Barony Drive in Baillieston around 12.10am after a 31-year-old man was seriously injured in a targeted attack.
Shocked neighbours reported hearing gunshots just minutes before the man stumbled down the street to bang on a door and request help.
He was initially taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital before being transferred to Glasgow Royal Infirmary, where he is being treated.
Detective Inspector Andy Wright, said: “Following enquiries we are now able to confirm that this man was shot in the Barony Drive area shortly before he was found.
“This was a targeted attack and the 31-year-old man would appear to be the intended victim, however we realise that such incidents do cause alarm.
“The roads in the area will be opened today, however we will have increased patrols thereafter and I would like to reassure the local community that everything is being done to trace whoever is responsible.
“We would ask anyone with any information to get in touch with us, if you were in the area at the time and have not already spoken to police, we would urge you to come forward. You may have information that can help us.”
Anyone with any information is asked to contact police via 101, quoting incident number 0014 of Saturday, 15 January, 2022.
Alternatively you can contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where information can be given anonymously.
