A man has been arrested in connection with the death of 15-year-old Paige Doherty.
Ms Doherty's body was found in a wooded area in Clydebank after she went missing on Saturday morning.
Police Scotland said a 31-year-old man had been arrested in connection with the murder. He is expected to appear at Dumbarton Shefiff Court on Saturday.
Ms Doherty left her friend's house after a sleepover around 8.15 on Saturday, to travel by bus to a hairdressers where she worked.
She bought a sausage roll from the Delicious Deli in Clydebank on the way to the bus stop. However, it is unknown if she arrived at the stop.
A Police Scotland investigator said the force are "keeping an open mind" about the possible reason for the attack, but would not rule out a "sexual motive".
Friends of the girl raised more than £12,000 for her family, through two crowdfunding campaigns.
Pamela Munro, Ms Doherty’s mother, said in a Facebook post: "We are absolutely devastated, as will many people who know her will be xxx."
