A 33-year-old man has been arrested after a father-of-two was killed by a van near Glasgow.

The dead man, 27-yearold Steven Campbell, suffered multiple injuries after being struck by a white Ford Transit in a suspected hit-and-run.

Mr Campbell was walking with another man and a woman on Burnhill Street in Rutherglen shortly before 2am on Saturday when he was hit.

He was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, but later died.

“The place won’t be the same without you.”

Another tribute read: “Can’t believe another young one gone rip Stevie Campbell. GBNF fly high.”
