A MAN has been arrested and charged in connection with attempted murder after a teenage cyclist was struck in Aberdeen.

A 37-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with attempted murder following a road crash on Rousay Drive.

Police received a report at around 6pm on Friday that a white BMW car struck a cyclist.

The cyclist, a 19-year-old man, later attended hospital for treatment. The road was closed for a period of time to allow inquiries to be carried out.

The 37-year-old is due to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court on Monday September 28.

Sergeant Scott Cooper said: “We are continuing to carry out enquiries following this incident and we are appealing to anyone who was in the area around this time to contact us with any information.
