“As I passed I could see about seven or eight police officers surrounding and speaking to a young male.
“I couldn’t really make out what it was about, but it looked serious.
“It’s an unusual sight in Monifieth, and quite a few people along the High Street had stopped and were watching.”
Another onlooker said: “I heard sirens and police vans appeared in the High Street in Monifieth.
“Around eight police officers got out. Some appeared to speak to one young lad while the others spread out and seemed to be looking for someone.
