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.
