A WORKER operating a chainsaw during Storm Amy was attacked by a driver as he tried to clear debris from a road.

- By Douglas Dickie

In an incident described as “outrageous” by police, the man was working on the A82 in the Glen Goy area of the Highlands at around noon on Saturday.

The suspect, who was driving a grey left-hand-drive Renault van, approached the road worker and pushed him into a ditch.

Outrageous

Police condemned the attack, which happened while Met Office yellow weather warnings of wind were in place, as “completely unacceptable”.

Inspector Katy Duncan said: “Fortunately, the victim was not seriously injured, however, the fact he was attacked whilst operating a chain saw is outrageous and so dangerous.
