Sergeant Leah McKinnon said: “We are appealing to anyone who was in the area and may have seen this man to get in touch. We would also like to speak to anyone who may have seen a man fitting this description hanging around the beach area on other occasions.
“Officers will be carrying out additional patrols in the area and we urge anyone with concerns to speak to them.”
Anyone with information should contact police via 101, quoting incident number 3904 of 1 July 2024. Alternatively calls can be made to Crimestoppers on 0800 111 555 where anonymity can be maintained.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
