A paedophile who bragged about his abuse has fled his home after being exposed by the Daily Record.

David Logan, 24, posted sickening pictures online where he is seen smirking next to a sign which read "Beware Children".

But the smile was wiped off his pudgy face after his sick snap was printed in the Record last Thursday.

Families in the village of Hardgate, near Glasgow, where he had moved to after his conviction, were furious.

Now, days after we exposed his crimes, he has gone to ground.

According to a source, residents had been shouting abuse at him.

He finally packed his bags after an angry mob gathered and a brick went through his window.

A local woman said: "I'm surprised he lasted almost a week after being exposed by the Record.

"There are decent people here and no one was going to stand for a pervert like him living in the area."

In the sick photo he posted on Facebook, Logan is posing in a T-shirt featuring "Pedo-bear" - a mascot used by paedophiles to identify each other.

It also bore the slogan "Calm down - you're scaring the children away".

Logan was bailed until September 21 at Dumbarton Sheriff Court last week where he admitted hoarding more than 5000 images and hundreds of videos of abused kids.

Amazingly, the flat West Dunbartonshire Council gave him overlooked a kids' football pitch.

The sicko is facing jail as he was given 18 months' probation last year for threatening to arrange for a woman to be sexually assaulted by seven men.
