Glasgow couple robbed in parked car by man 'covered in fake Halloween blood'

Police are searching for a robber covered in fake blood who got into a parked car and robbed a young couple inside.

A 21-year-old man and 17-year-old woman were in a parked car at Springfield Quay around 1.40am on October 30 when the unidentified man entered the car.

The suspect got into a verbal altercation with the couple before grabbing the woman's mobile and walking off in the direction of the River Clyde. He then threw the phone into the water and got into another verbal altercation before heading alongside the river.

The man was wearing a black jumper with a logo on the front, a white t-shirt, bright orange shorts, white trainers, and is believed to have had fake Halloween blood on his face and clothing.

He spoke with a local Glaswegian accent and is described as being white, around 17 to 25-years-old, slim build, about 6ft tall with very short fair or ginger hair.

Constable Alex Logie said: “Our enquiries into this incident suggest that a number of other people were at Springfield Quay around the time this happened.

“If you saw anything or believe you may have any other information which could help our enquiries then please get in touch.

“You can call police on 101, quoting 0513 of October 30, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
