Cars damaged as rocks thrown from bridge in 'reckless' attacks on Scottish road

Vehicles have been damaged by rocks thrown from a footbridge in two incidents on a Fife road.

Police have said the actions were “completely reckless and could have devastating consequences”.

The incidents happened around 10pm on Thursday, April 24, and again at the same time on Monday, April 28 when rocks were thrown from a footbridge over the B969 on Western Avenue, Glenrothes, at passing vehicles.

Two vehicles sustained windscreen damage and although no-one was injured, police said the occupants were left shaken by what had happened.

Police, who attended the scene and searched for the culprits without success, have appealed for help from the public. They want to hear from anyone who may have seen persons on the bridge around this or may have dashcam footage from that time.

Sergeant Reidie, from the Glenrothes Community Team, said: "Throwing stones at passing vehicles is completely reckless and could have devastating consequences.

"This is a fast road and it is incredibly lucky that no-one was seriously injured or worse."

Anyone with more information is urged to call 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 quoting incident number 3963 of April 28.
