A BUS carrying Rangers supporters was attacked and damaged after the Light Blues drew 1-1 with Aberdeen on Tuesday night.

The incident happened while the bus was driving westbound on Hutcheon Street near Mounthooly roundabout between 9.50pm and 10pm after the Scottish Premiershi­p match at Pittodrie Stadium.

It’s been reported that a missile may have been thrown at the moving bus.

Police Scotland is now on the hunt for three young men who endangered the life of, not only the fans, but the general public.

Local area commander chief inspector Martin Mackay described how inquiries are ongoing to trace a group of three males, “described as youths,” who were seen in the area at the time.

They were last seen heading in the Gallowgate direction and one was wearing a white jacket.

He added: “An object was thrown at the vehicle causing damage to a window.

“What is more concerning is the fact the coach was moving at the time. Such a reckless act put everyone on the bus in danger as well as pedestrian­s.”
