A MAN who was found injured in a city centre bus shelter has died in hospital.
The 59-year-old was discovered lying at a bus stop in Garscube Road, Cowcaddens just after 7am on Saturday morning.
Emergency services attended and the man was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary where he later died.
Detectives have been piecing together the man’s movements in the early hours of Saturday morning and are appealing to a number of people who helped him and could assist the investigation.
Images taken from CCTV show the man falling at the junction of Renfield Street and West George Street around 3.30am on Saturday, where he was assisted by three people, before he continued along Renfield Street.
Reports suggest the man was later standing at a bus shelter near Dundasvale Court, around 5.25am, where he interacted with three men.
One of these men assisted the man into the bus shelter and another of the men appears to have attempted to phone a taxi before boarding a number 60 First Bus service.
Anyone with information is asked to call officers via 101, quoting reference number 0702 of January 4.
Detective Inspector Iain Nelson said: "Since our initial appeal, the man has died in hospital and it's crucial we find out what happened to him earlier that morning.
"I am appealing to the three people who interacted with him when he fell at the junction of Renfield Street and the three people who interacted with him at the bus shelter on Garscube Road to contact police as a matter of urgency as they could have vital information which could assist with our enquiries.
"I would also ask anyone who was driving in these areas in the early hours of Saturday to review their dash-cam footage and report anything which may be of use to us."
