ByMartin Cutler and David Mackay
A man has been arrested after a bus was reportedly stolen in Fraserburgh before it crashed into a wall.
The Stagecoach vehicle was driven off from the bus station in the Aberdeenshire town before the collision.
It is understood it only made it a short distance before it mounted the pavement, narrowly missing a bus stop.
Police were called to College Bounds in Fraserburgh shortly after 9.30pm on Saturday.
Photographs from the scene show the collision attracted a crowd of people in the town centre.
A police spokesman said: “At about 9.35pm on Saturday, September 18, officers received a report of a bus being stolen from Hanover Street in Fraserburgh.
“It was later traced in the College Bounds area and a 30-year-old man was arrested in connection with the incident.
“He has been released pending further inquiries, which remain ongoing.”
