A MAN was seriously assaulted during a brawl at a city nightclub.
The 22-year-old man was set upon after he tried to break up a fight between two other men at the Garage nightclub on Sauchiehall street early this morning.
Two men, who were unknown to the 22-year-old, were involved in an altercation at the nightclub around 1.30am.
When the 22-year-old stepped in he was hit with an object by one of the men, and was taken to the Royal Infirmary with a facial injury.
Police are now hunting the man who is described as in his mid 20s, 5ft 9in with a heavy build and short dirty blond hair.
He was wearing a dark short sleeved t-shirt with a coloured design on the front and dark jeans. He also spoke with a Glasgow accent.
Detective Constable Colin Murphy said: “The nightclub would have been busy around the time of the incident and I would appeal to anyone who was there and witnessed what happened to get in touch.
"Anyone with information is urged to contact police via the 101 number or alternatively you can call CRIMESTOPPERS on 0800 555 111 where all calls will be kept anonymous.”
