Ross County v Raith Rovers disorder sees two youths injured

DETECTIVES have issued an appeal for information about an incident where two youths were injured following the Ross County v Raith Rovers football match in Dingwall.

At around 5.20pm on Saturday, officers were called to reports of a disturbance in the Jubilee Park Road area.

There was nothing ongoing when officers attended the scene, however, two male youths were found with injuries. They were taken to Raigmore Hospital for treatment and have since been discharged.

Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances of what happened, and anyone with information or footage is urged to come forward.

Detective Sergeant Chris Robertson said: “We know the area was busy with supporters at the time and there are likely to be witnesses to this incident who have yet to speak to police.

“From enquiries so far, we know there was a group of people seen with their faces covered. We’re particularly keen to speak to anyone with information about this group.

“I’d like to ask anyone who saw what happened, has any information or mobile phone or dash-cam footage, to come forward.

“Police will be liaising with both clubs as part of our enquiries.”

Anyone with information is urged to call 101 quoting reference 2538 of 4 October. Alternatively, information can be given anonymously by contacting Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
