Four football fans have been arrested after a disturbance during a Rangers International home match.
The incident took place during the Glasgow side’s game against Annan Athletic on December 18 last year.
On Wednesday, the Football Co-Ordination Unit for Scotland (FoCUS) said its officers had arrested two men aged 16, a 24-year-old man and a woman aged 18 that morning.
A spokeswoman said the arrests were made in the Glasgow area "following a retrospective investigation into an alleged disturbance within Ibrox stadium" during the Third Division tie.
All four were arrested and released on an undertaking to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Friday, March 22.
The arrests came in addition to eight other men who were arrested at the game. All of them, who were aged between 17 and 31 years old, were released on an undertaking to appear at Glasgow Sheriff Court at a later date.
Strathclyde Police said the incident was brought "swiftly under control" during the match, which Rangers International won 3-0.
* Medros are to have it explained to them that there was no actual riot. The title of the story was picked due to the similarity of incidents between Celtic and Dundee where less fans were arrested but the reporting of "Riots" continued nonetheless. Lollipops will be handed out if confusion persists
