A bus travelling to Stirling was forced to stop after "a reckless act of vandalism".

The McGill's service was travelling towards the city when a window was shattered on the B9140 between Coalsnaughton and Fishcross.

It happened at around 9.50pm on Wednesday, February 4.

No-one was harmed, but the bus operator has revealed that the incident was deliberate.

A spokesperson for Midland Bluebird said: “We can confirm that one of our vehicles had a window broken deliberately whilst in service on Wednesday evening. Thankfully both the passengers and the driver were unharmed during the incident.

"We are engaging with Police Scotland on the matter, with any relevant CCTV footage passed to investigating officers.

“As a company, we will press for the strongest of action against those identified in this reckless act of vandalism."

Police Scotland have been contacted for comment.
