Police have appealed for witnesses after a “potential firearm” was discharged at a property in Paisley.

The incident happened around 1.30am on Wednesday, December 30, in the Glencoats Drive Area.

No one was injured but an investigation is ongoing, including a review of CCTV and door-to-door enquiries.

“I would appeal to anyone who was in the area around the time of the incident to contact police.

“I would also ask anyone who has private CCTV to check the footage for anything of significance which may assist our enquiries. If you were driving in the area and your car is equipped with a dashcam I would also ask you to check the footage too.
