Dodgy Glasgow workman dumped more than 51 tonnes of old tyres across the city

An opportunistic workman dropped more than 68 tonnes of rubbish across the city in "large-scale" fly tipping of tyres and household waste.

Declan Clarke, 30, dumped 51 tonnes of tyres which were set ablaze in the city's Drumchapel causing flight disruption at Glasgow Airport in July 2020.

He then discarded a further 500 tyres at Gartloch Farm near Glasgow Fort shopping centre months after police raided his home for the earlier offence.
