The Dundee Unit has assisted Police Scotland after a man was found to be on board a vessel at Dundee Port.

 

An onboard search resulted in the discovery of an intruder who had broken into the Abertay tug and had been living aboard without permission.

 

The unit had previously used the tug for training purposes so they were asked for assistance as they knew their way around the vessel. 

 

The request came after a RHIB owned by Tay Maritime Action Charity was stolen from Tayport marina and was seen alongside the tug in the tidal basin.
