Police have been called in to control 'aggressive' ferry customers after a spate of Caledonian MacBrayne services were disrupted.
Officers have attended ports in Mallaig and in Ardrossan after staff were subjected to abuse in recent days. Managing director Robbie Drummond took to social media to condemn the 'unacceptable' behavior and pleaded with members of the public to treat workers with respect.
He said: "I know frustrations are running high but please treat our staff with respect - they are doing their utmost to help customers. Police have been asked to attend Mallaig and Ardrossan. Aggressive behavior towards our staff is unacceptable and will not be tolerated."
