A man allegedly crashed his car outside a branch of Toys R Us before getting naked and rampaging through the shop swinging a cricket bat.

Police said yesterday that a man was reported to have driven his car into a trolley park in Dundee’s Kingsway West Retail Park before stripping off and marching into Toys R Us wielding a cricket bat at around 2.35pm on Easter Sunday.

And as many as 20 shoppers at the toy shop attempted to pin down the man, who was ‘ranting and raving in a foreign language’ and chasing customers, witnesses said.

‘There must have been 20 other folk who jumped on him and took him down,’ said Gavin Watt, who was at the store.




‘He was big and bulky and tattooed all over and very strong.’

Another witness said she saw him kicking the doors of the ladies’ toilet before chasing a woman and her young daughter through the aisles.

‘The man was crazed – he wanted to cause carnage,’ the witness said.

Security at the store were able to overpower the man and police were called.

A spokeswoman for Police Scotland’s Tayside Division said one woman sustained a facial injury during the disturbance and required medical attention.

‘Anyone who remembers seeing anything suspicious in or around the store is asked to contact Police Scotland immediately on 101,’ she said.
