Police in Fife have arrested and charged two teenagers after flares were set off and thrown on to the pitch during the Raith Rovers home game with Dunfermline Athletic.
The incident happened at 4.20pm on Saturday January 19 at Stark’s Park in Kirkcaldy.
The pair, both aged 16, will appear in court at a later date.
Police have not ruled out further arrests and say investigations continue.
Inspector Jane Combe, Fife Division’s Event Commander for the match, said: “This dangerous behaviour is completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated.
“Pyrotechnics of any kind at football matches are extremely dangerous and can cause significant life-changing injuries for those carrying them.
“Two arrests have now been made, however, with the full assistance of Raith Rovers and Dunfermline Athletic Football Club, as well as some fans who have come forward, we continue to investigate this matter thoroughly.
“I would urge anyone with information in relation to this investigation, or if you were involved, to contact police immediately.”
Damage was done to a supporter’s clothing and parts of the artificial pitch in the incident.
Those with information can contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1656 of January 21, or contact the charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
