A 17-year-old has been arrested in connection with the alleged theft of a drum from a Ross County fan.
The incident took place on January 20 in Dingwall just before the fourth round of the Scottish Cup in which Ross County was beaten 0-3 by Partick Thistle.
A young fan who had the drum was walking down Ferry Road when several youths stole the drum, which later turned up destroyed.
Now, months after the theft took place, a teenage male has been arrested in connection.
A police spokesperson said: “A 17-year-old male youth was arrested in connection with a robbery. It follows an incident on January 20, 2024, when a drum was stolen from two youths in Ferry Road, Dingwall.
“The 17-year-old was released on an undertaking and is due to appear in court at a later date.”
Following the incident the community rallied around the young victim.
Ross County FC condemned the theft, while Dingwall Community Council pledged to buy the boy a new drum.
