A 15-year-old Glasgow boy has been charged with trolling the father of missing Glenrothes man Allan Bryant online.
Police Scotland confirmed on Tuesday afternoon that the teenager had been charged under the Communications Act after a warrant was executed in Glasgow.
The 15-year-old has now been reported to the children’s reporter following an investigation into online abuse relating to missing Fife man Allan Bryant.
Allan Bryant Jr was last seen outside a Glenrothes nightclub in November 2013.
His parents Allan Bryant Sr and Marie Degan have been forced to increase security due to threats made against them online.
Troll Stewart McInroy, who sent sick messages claiming he had taken Allan Jr hostage and tortured and killed him, was jailed for 10 months in August 2014.
