Firefighters attacked in string of Bonfire Night incidents across Scotland
They responded to 970 incidents across Scotland during the evening.
Firefighters are branding a series of attacks on crews during Bonfire Night 'completely unacceptable'.
A number of crews were targeted with fireworks and missiles in incidents across Scotland.
It's as they attended 970 call-outs between 4pm and midnight.
Scottish Fire and Rescue Assistant Chief Officer Lewis Ramsay, said: “Attacks on emergency responders are completely unacceptable and I am sure the public would be outraged by incidents where their firefighters have been targeted while working to protect people and property.
"Those responsible should know that the authorities take these criminal actions extremely seriously and we will work closely with police to ensure they are identified and held to account. “We will continue our efforts to bring about a reduction in these dangerous actions by a small number of individuals.
"As an organisation we have a duty of care towards our employees and we are committed to protecting our frontline staff who work in challenging circumstances to make communities safer.” Among the incidents, a crew in Ardrossan came under attack by youths in New England Road.
