A 54-year-old woman has died at Celtic Park just 15 minutes before kick-off in the Scottish Premiership match between Celtic and St Mirren.

Emergency services raced to the stadium at 2.45pm on Saturday following a call about a medical incident in the toilets.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said the death was not being treated as suspicious. The club, managed by Portuguese coach Ange Postecoglou, released a statement expressing their sadness at the news.

"We regret to confirm that a 54-year-old woman passed away suddenly at Celtic Park prior to yesterday’s match. Her family have been informed and we would like to extend our sincere condolences to her family," the statement read.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with them at this tragic time. Celtic will provide any necessary support required at this time," added the club, which went on to win the match 3-0.
