Fourteen people have been arrested across the first two days of the Trnsmt music festival in Glasgow, police have confirmed.
Three people, two males and one female aged between 18 and 29, were arrested on suspicion of assault and disorder on Friday evening when Pulp headlined the three-day festival at Glasgow Green.
On Saturday, following heavy rain and thunderstorms, police said 11 arrests had been made of people aged between 15 and 46 accused of offences including assault, disorder and drug offences.

Festival-goers have been arriving for the final day of music acts, including headliners The 1975, with Becky Hill, Jamie Webster and The Kooks performing earlier in the day.
Among those attending, 18-year-old Lewis Prentice, from Ayr, said seeing rock band Kasabian, who played the main stage on Saturday evening before headliner Sam Fender, had “made his life.”
He added: “I’m looking most forward to Jamie Webster and The Kooks (on Sunday).
“Kasabian were absolutely amazing, they were mental. That made my life.”

Meanwhile, 16-year-old Ellie Galloway, from Maybole in Ayrshire, revealed her own unique reaction to seeing rapper Aitch on the main stage on Saturday.
She said: “I did a back flip in the mosh pit at Aitch.”
The teenagers led bemused passengers on a train between Paisley Gilmour Street and Glasgow Central in a sing-a-long to classic Oasis tracks including Don’t Look Back In Anger and Half The World Away as the warmed up for their third day at the festival.
On Saturday festival-goers had to contend with heavy mud as Glasgow Green turned into swamp, but there will be a little respite for music-lovers on Sunday, with sunny intervals forecast before rain returns in the late afternoon and early evening.

Festival director Geoff Ellis said organisers were “keeping a close eye on the weather” as he praised the reaction to the weekend line-up.
He said: “The bar was set high across the site and it’s always amazing to witness fans discovering new music from the likes of Swim School and Heidi Curtis.
“We were keeping a close eye on the weather but any showers were overshadowed by an action-packed day of live music.”
Indie band The Kooks took to the main stage on Sunday under sunny skies – playing hits such as Ooh La, She Moves In Her Own Way and finishing off with Naive.
Frontman Luke Pritchard said: “I love Glasgow … being in a field and playing music and being with you guys … thank you so much.”
Also playing the main stage for the first time on Sunday was Becky Hill.
She last appeared at the festival in 2021 on the King Tut’s Stage when one fan collapsed and fans scaled the bar.
She said: “It’s been quite a while since I was last here when I was over there (at the King Tut’s Stage) and you lot closed the stage down.
“Thank you to Trnsmt for having me back to play on this bloody massive stage.”
