Shoppers rush for safety as Rangers fans wearing balaclavas and Santa hats charge police cordon with flares set off in the streets of Glasgow Rangers fans disguising their identity wearing blue balaclavas and Santa hats ran riot through the streets of Glasgow on Sunday afternoon ahead of the Old Firm derby.

One video published on social media shows black-cladded rioters breaking through a police cordon outside of the Debenhams on Argyle Street.

Waves of Rangers supporters caused terror on the streets as they tore through public areas in the city's shopping district, sprinting without regard for anybody in their way and lighting illegal pyrotechnics in broad daylight.

Celtic host Rangers in the Scottish League Cup final that kicks off at 3.30pm and disgraceful scenes took place across the city in the hours leading up to the game.

Flares were also launched at police during the same 25-second clip as smoke billowed through the streets and officials struggled to regain order.
