OBAN police are searching for a ‘dangerous cyclist’ who absconded from officers on Sunday evening after behaving in a manner likely to cause harm to people on Stafford Street and George Street, writes Sandy Neil.
The man was seen cycling the wrong way along a one-way street into oncoming traffic before frightening pedestrians and clipping cars as he made his escape.
Police describe the man as having blond wavy hair and wearing a purple hoodie top. He is described as around 18 years old, and was riding a black-framed BMX-type bicycle. Two police officers witnessed the man’s behaviour.
