Motorcyclist assaulted by two men in Troon
The man was attacked after asking the pair not to touch his motorbike
A man’s been assaulted in the middle of a busy street in Troon.
He’d just parked his vintage motorcycle on Portland Street at around 4pm on Saturday when he was approached by two men who started touching the bike without his permission. When the man asked them not to, he was attacked.
The victim didn’t require any medical assistance, but police are keen to trace the men responsible.
The first is described as around 40 and the second as around 60, both were of stocky build and around 6ft tall. One of the men was wearing a khaki body warmer and red shorts.
Police Sergeant Dean Barlas, Locality policing Sergeant, said “We are currently making enquiries into this report and are seeking the assistance of the public in identifying the two men involved”.
“The incident happened on Saturday afternoon so it is likely that the street was busy with other residents and visitors and I would ask that anyone who witnessed the incident or has any information that can help us should contact us”.
