Man dies after falling from balcony at Glasgow gallery

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 12.30pm on Wednesday, 11 September, we received a report a man had fallen from height inside an art gallery on Royal Exchange Square.

“Emergency services attended, but the 55-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene.

“There are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances and a report will be sent to the procurator fiscal.”

In a post on X on Wednesday, Goma said: “The Gallery of Modern Art has closed early today after a member of the public fell from a balcony. Emergency services are in attendance.

“The building will reopen as normal tomorrow, Thursday 12 September at 10am.”

The gallery in the city centre previously hosted the Cut & Run exhibition of work by street artist Banksy.

It is also known for the traffic cone which famously sits on the head of the Duke of Wellington statue outside the venue.
