Three workmen have been injured after a wall collapsed in the West End.
The incident happened around 1.55pm today on Vinicombe Street, just off Byres Road.
Two of the men were transferred to the Queen Elizabeth University hospital.
One eye witness said the three men were walking between the outbuilding and Lethe garage when the entire facing collapsed on top of them.
They said: "It could have happened to anyone. They were just going to get their dinner when the thing fell."
One man is thought to have suffered cracked ribs and a broken leg in the incident.
Police have cordoned off the scene and building control staff from Glasgow City Council are due to inspect the site later today.
