A Dundee teenager has been robbed of an electric scooter by a gang wielding a weapon.
Four men confronted the 18-year-old man, who was riding the scooter along Dunholm Road in Charleston on Monday evening.
The teen was threatened by one member of the group, who was brandishing a weapon, before an altercation took place.
The men then ran off from the scene, near Dunholm Terrace, with the scooter.
Police say the victim was not injured.

One of the men had ginger hair.
