POLICE have released a further eight images of people they wish to trace as their Scottish Cup Final investigation continues.
Officers in Glasgow said they have released the images as part of their investigation into acts of violence, disorder and vandalism that took place during a pitch invasion following the final whistle of the match between Rangers and Hibernian at Hampden Park on Saturday, May 21.
They also say they are releasing images of persons they are keen to trace whom they believe may be able to assist them with their enquiries.
The latest batch of images to be released comes after a further seven people were arrested last week.
Addresses in Glasgow, Ayrshire, Livingston and Edinburgh were targeted and seven men, aged between 19, 19, 22, 24, 28, 45 and 49 were arrested.
This latest operation brought the total number of arrests to 50. The men were arrested for alleged assaults and disorder.
Anyone with information about the identities of the persons pictured is asked to contact the incident room at Govan Police Office, Greater Glasgow CID on 0141 5325457, or the dedicated mailbox address scottishcupfinalpitchinvasion@scotland.pnn.police.uk or alternatively Crimestoppers can be contacted on 0800 555 111.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
