sbeach2 — Some 20+ young people partied at Sandy Beach.

Police stopped and boarded the Ardentinny to Dunoon 485 bus late on Friday June 4 after an Ardentinny resident reported stones being thrown at her window. A group of young people in a number of cars was noticed earlier in the evening drinking on Sandy Beach. The resident said that several stones were thrown at her window late on Friday. When she went to investigate she received verbal abuse from a group of mostly drunk girls. A Police spokeperson confirmed that the last bus had been stopped but none of the alleged offenders were on the bus and could not be found. They may have got in to a car or cars or gone in to someone’s house. If anyone has any information on the incident, they should contact Dunoon Police on 01369 763060.
