Four arrests made during police operation for Donald Trump's visit to Scotland

Four arrests were made during one of the “biggest operations in Police Scotland’s history” as Donald Trump visited the country.

More than 7,000 officers were mobilised for ‘Operation Roll 2’ during the visit of the US President across five days.

The operation included local, national and specialist officers from Police Scotland as well as officers from UK police forces.

Trump met with notable figures such as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and First Minister John Swinney during visits to Turnberry and Balmedie.

A number of demonstrations and protests took place across the country, including in Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Police said four arrests were made in connection with Operation Roll 2, described as one of the biggest operations in the force’s history.

A 25-year-old male was arrested in Glasgow on Friday in relation to an offence of threatening or abusive behaviour at Balmedie on July 24. He is due to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court on Wednesday, August 20.

A 65-year-old female was arrested at Balmedie on Friday in relation to an offence of threatening or abusive behaviour. She was cautioned, charged and reported to the Procurator Fiscal.

A 25-year-old male was arrested in Prestwick on Friday and issued with a Recorded Police Warning (RPW) for an offence relating to threatening or abusive behaviour.

A 41-year-old male was arrested at Glasgow Airport on Sunday for assault and an Aviation Act offence. He appeared at Paisley Sheriff Court on Monday and was remanded in custody.

A 50-year-old female was also issued with an RPW on Sunday near to the American Consulate in Edinburgh for an offence relating to threatening or abusive behaviour.

Assistant chief constable Emma Bond, Gold commander for the police operation, said: “This significant event took place safely without any serious disruption.

“A policing plan was put in place to maintain public safety, balance rights to peaceful protest and minimise disruption.

“I’d like to thank the public for their patience as we worked tirelessly to deliver this operation, while police work continued in communities across Scotland.

“Most importantly, I’d like to thank our officers and staff. Thank you for your professionalism and hard work during every long shift away from your family and friends.

“Every single officer and member of police staff should be incredibly proud of how we delivered this significant operation while keeping communities safe across Scotland.”
