A MAN will appear in court today charged with alleged bogus workmen incidents in Old Kilpatrick.

The 24-year-old was arrested and charged after he was reportedly posing as a tradesman in Freelands Crescent between Monday, August 3 and Thursday, August 6.

Enquiries are still ongoing to identify two other men.

The first is described as being white, wearing a black zipped hooded top, grey t-shirt, black cargo trousers with grey patches, beige shoes and a white face mask.

The second is also white, wearing a dark blue gilet, grey t-shirt, black cargo trousers with grey patches, beige shoes and a white face mask.

Detective Constable Imran Abuzar, of Clydebank CID, said: "Elderly and vulnerable people are usually targeted in these types of incident.

“I would urge all members of the public to remain vigilant and only get work done from approved or trusted tradesmen and challenge anyone who does not have the necessary credentials.

“Alternatively you can call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."

The 24-year-old man is due at Dumbarton Sheriff Court today.
