A man has been seriously injured in an altercation following a car crash in Johnstone.

Police received a report of a collision between two cars in Elm Drive at around 2.30pm on Thursday.

A disturbance then flared up involving a number of people from the two vehicles, resulting in a 21-year-old man being assaulted.
