Tributes have been paid to a 36-year-old dad who died following an incident in Glasgow on Wednesday.
Locals have named Kevin Kennedy as the man rushed to hospital after being found on Cornwall Street South in the city's Cessnock area at 11.30pm on October 5. Despite the efforts of medics he was pronounced dead at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

"Kev you really were my best friend and enemy all in one and there will never ever be a day that you are forgotten I promise. I love you with all my heart, fly high."
One tribute said: "Can't believe I'm writing this...Kevin Kennedy love you bro, GBNF. Always be in my heart and thoughts forever, dance with the angels."
Pal Jonny said: "Rest in peace Kevin Kennedy some say friends, I called you family brother. Going to miss your everyday phone calls while I'm working n getting moaned at aff the gaffer.
