POLICE officers allegedly came under attack after being called to an illegal house party in Gourock on Saturday night.

Officers attended Ashburn Gardens at 9.30pm after a complaint was made by a member of the public.

Despite police efforts to encourage compliance with coronavirus restrictions, a man is said to have become aggressive and shouted and swore at officers before struggling violently and assaulting them.

The 48-year-old male was arrested and is now the subject of a report to the procurator fiscal.

A further two individuals who were within the property have been issued with fixed penalty fines for breaching the Covid-19 regulations.
