Five held after city axe rampage

Shoppers fled in terror as a gang of men battled with swords and axes in Glasgow city centre.

The fight broke out at the Savoy Centre in Sauchiehall Street in mid-afternoon as families enjoyed the start of the Easter holidays.

Police arrested five Chinese men, and three of them are expected to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court today.

Three men - two aged 24 and one aged 32 - were arrested for possession of illegal weapons.

Another 24-year-old was detained under immigration laws.

The fifth man, who was injured in the incident and taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary, is expected to appear in court later.

Police said two of the men were taken to hospital after the incident, which happened at 3.35pm yesterday.

However, their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

A police spokeswoman said: "Three men aged 32, 24 and 24 have been arrested in relation to possession of illegal offensive weapons.

"Another 24-year-old man is being detained under the Immigration Act."

The incident comes seven months after a 47-year-old woman was shot at point-blank range in the Chinatown shopping centre, in the Garnethill area of the city.  continues here

Peter March and Jared Taylor Racial Diversity Debate

So who won

Mr Peter March or Mr Jared Taylor, whose hypothesis has validity, whose theory stands up, certainly the debate is not in depth however, it is interesting to in fact witness a debate. Race-realists are never given a platform, in fact it has become a political philosophy and egalitarians and the left revel in such draconian censorship, watch the debate, a debate that primarily concerns Canada yet by extension us all.
