At least two firefighters have been injured after missiles and fireworks were thrown at them during a wave of attacks.

Strathclyde Fire Brigade said Tuesday's Bonfire Night proved to be one of the busiest in years.

A spokesman for the Strathclyde brigade said the most disturbing aspect of this year's event was the amount of violence.

Crews came under attack in East Kilbride, Coatbridge, Lanark, and Old Kilpatrick, and at least two firefighters were injured.
