Residents have also raised concerns over stones being thrown at the A-listed Aikenhead House within the park.representative urged residents to continue phoning 999 if vandalism occurs as “the more calls we get the easier it is for us to justify why we are spending our time in King’s Park”.
Bailie Morgan, speaking at a Linn area partnership meeting last week, said: “I seem to have an awful lot of complaints of anti-social behaviour happening in King’s Park. “That extends to vandalism, stones getting thrown at Aikenhead House, trees being set on fire, which is very, very worrying because it could really escalate.
The police officer said the force does “try to get into the park on a regular basis”. “Sod’s law if we are in the area there’s nobody else there,” he said. “We get calls and we see the kids at the top of the hill, if we walk in or drive in we’re seen and they scatter. He added if people in King’s Park are “calling in because stones are being thrown at windows and they are dialling 999, a response vehicle will be dispatched”. “It’s all dependent on the severity of other calls on the screen, but a 999 call moves to the top of the list quite quickly.”
