Two men have been arrested in connection to reports of machete-wielding teenager who allegedly attacked a bus in Scotland.
Witnesses said two hooded teenagers, one of whom was carrying a machete more than a foot long, attacked the bus along with other vehicles in the east end of Glasgow at 8:30pm on Monday evening.
Passenger Kris Goodman, 30, who was travelling on the bus with his five-year-old daughter when the incident occurred, said he saw two people, one with a machete, attacking cars on Alexandra Parade.
“Then I saw them going for the bus I was on. They hit the driver's side window. They were hitting vehicles as if they really wanted to scare people," he said.
Locals reported several police vehicles and a helicopter being spotted in neighbouring Roystonhill following the incident.
Another witness said both teenagers were wearing grey hooded tops and jogging bottoms.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: "Two males have been apprehended in connection with the incident and are currently in police custody".
