ENQUIRIES are ongoing after a car’s windows were smashed near Kirkpatrick Durham last weekend.
The owner of the white Vauxhall Corsa vehicle left it parked in a layby by Loch Patrick at around 7.15 pm last Friday.
And while fishing on the water, a black Volkswagen Golf approached the vehicle from the direction of Kirkpatrick Durham about ten minutes later and parked-up behind.
The driver of the Volkswagen, described as possibly male and dressed in dark clothing, was observed approaching the unattended Vauxhall. Two sudden bangs were heard and thereafter the black Volkswagen Golf was seen driving off towards the direction of A75.
Upon returning to the car, the angler discovered that its front and nearside rear windows had been smashed, the glove compartment opened and items within the vehicle “disturbed”, however it is reported that nothing of note was stolen.
Police Scotland are appealing for witnesses and information that could assist their investigation.
