WHEN an Argyll and Bute Council employee issued a parking ticket on George Street in Oban, he was met with a barrage of abuse, some of it racial.
Sheriff Patrick Hughes, sitting at Oban Sheriff Court on Wednesday, was told that a body-cam worn by the worker captured David Macdonald Forrest racially abusing him and telling him to ‘get a real job’.
When Forrest said that his girlfriend had only parked the car there for minutes, the council employee tried to explain, but Forrest started to shout and swear at him.
