iStockPolice have launched an investigation into a string of laser pen attacks after a number of drivers have been forced to pull over to avoid crashing.
The incidents have taken place within the Queens Drive and King George V Park areas of Stranraer, Dumfries and Galloway, between 10pm on January 4 and 6.50pm on January 10.
Investigating officers said a green-coloured laser pen was shone into the drivers’ eyes.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “This has caused drivers to have to pull their vehicles to the side of the road to avoid collision due to temporary vision loss from the laser.”
