A man has been arrested after chasing police officers with a chainsaw on a public holiday on Monday.
Officers closed Glasgow Road in Paisley following reports of the incident at around 1pm on May 6.
Footage shared on social media appeared to show a man brandishing an electric saw, with eyewitnesses claiming they saw a crash involving a black car and a police vehicle before the altercation.
One image shared online shows a marked police car crashing into the wall of a property near where the incident took place.
Residents said a stream of unmarked and marked police cars and vans appeared within seconds of the alarm going off.
