Racial abuse man hunted by police

Police have appealed for witnesses after a woman had racial abuse shouted at her in a block of flats in Aberdeen.

The incident happened in the communal hallway of the building in George Street shortly before 0900 GMT.

The man responsible is described as white and about 6ft tall. He was wearing a three-quarter length black jacket and had short, dyed blond hair.

Grampian Police said it was particularly upsetting for the woman, who was visibly shaken.
