Man dies outside UK's first drug consumption room in Glasgow
BBCA man has died outside Glasgow's drug consumption facility.
Police sealed off the entrance to The Thistle on Hunter Street after the death was reported at about 10:20 on Sunday morning.
The force said that inquiries were ongoing but there did not appear to be any suspicious circumstances and a report would be sent to the procurator fiscal.
The Thistle, which opened in January 2025, is the first safer drug consumption facility in the UK.
The facility allows people to inject heroin or cocaine while under medical supervision without being prosecuted.
It is overseen by Glasgow City Integration Joint Board - a partnership between the city council and Glasgow's health board.
It is running over a three-year pilot and registered 575 users in its first year.
A spokesperson for Glasgow City Council said: "We are assisting police with their enquires and it would not be appropriate to comment further at this stage."
