A Glasgow man says he is lucky to be alive after being struck on the head by a bit of breezeblock that was deliberately lobbed down on him from a bridge.
The shocking incident took place this afternoon on the River Kelvin walkway near to the Wyndford housing estate in the Maryhill area of the city.
Singer Kevin McDermott took to Twitter to share news of the incident, and believes that he would be dead if it wasn't for the helmet he was wearing while using his scooter on the walkway - which is popular with runners, cyclists and dog walkers.
