A concert-goer from Airdrie was one of dozens of people who had their phones stolen after being pickpocketed at the OVO Hydro last weekend.

“I told them that it had definitely stolen and asked if I could use a phone, but they said they didn’t have one that could make external calls. Then I asked to use one of their mobiles but they said company policy was not to let their personal phones be used by the public. They were just really unhelpful.
Inspector Iain Sibbald of Police Scotland, said: “We can confirm that police received several reports of thefts which took place at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow, on the evening of Sunday, 27 October, 2024.
