Man attacked in Robroyston

A man needed hospital treatment after an attack in Glasgow. The 26-year-old was assaulted outside a McDonald's in the Robroyston area at around 11.35pm yesterday.

Detectives want to trace a man who went into the fast-food restaurant in the Glasgow North Retail Park to alert staff.

The victim was treated for his injuries at the city's Royal Infirmary. Detective Constable Stephen Cooke said: `"I am directly appealing to the man who came into the McDonald's to tell staff about the attack to get in touch as he may have vital information that could assist with our investigation.

"There would also have been other people within the restaurant at that time and I would ask anyone who witnessed what happened to contact police immediately.''

Meanwhile, Police Scotland have re-appealed for information about a serious sexual assault in Dalkeith, Midlothian, a week ago.

A 27-year-old woman was attacked as she made her way home from a night out in the early hours of last Sunday.

After getting off a bus in Lauder Road at around 3.45am, she was forced into a wooded area where the assault took place.

The suspect is described as white, aged about 20, about 5ft 7in and of very slim build.

He had short dark hair and was wearing tight fitted jeans and a shiny black zip-up top.

Detective Chief Inspector John Peaston said: "It has now been one week since this dreadful attack was carried out on a lone female who was on her way home.

"We have had an encouraging response from the public as part of our ongoing inquiries but I want to take this opportunity to again appeal to anyone who was in the area in the early hours of last Sunday and who noticed any unusual behaviour whatsoever to please come forward.

"I am especially keen to hear from delivery drivers, tradesman or anyone else who was travelling to or from work to contact police. There is a possibility that they hold information that may on the face of it seem very minor but placed in the bigger picture of an investigation has the potential to be absolutely crucial.''
