There was a frightening incident on the ferry Loch Seaforth on Saturday evening as it sailed from Stornoway to Ullapool. A group of police officers, including what was said to be an armed response vehicle, was waiting for the ferry.
A vehicle was then pulled over after being driven off the ferry. As the driver was being detained, his passenger broke away and appeared to make a run for it with the north of Scotland’s finest burly cops in hot pursuit.
Witnesses tell me many people took photos and video which I would be very pleased to receive copies of. I may not be able to publish them immediately for legal reasons but they would be very useful at a later date. Full credit will be given, if wished.
