A man wielding a chainsaw chasing after the police in Paisley

1. Crazy

2. Concerning

3. That’s funny.

4. Curious what would happen if a civilian had hit him with their car John Smeaton style.

   Would you be charged? Can hardly claim self defence if he’s running away from you.

5. Imagine the mess if he tripped and fell in that!

6. To be fair he’s just trying to reduce the knife crime figures….full marks for adaptation.

7. Even for Paisley, this isn’t your everyday cop chase

8. Yikes – two police officers injured.

10. Standard Paisley stuff?

11. Give police guns. The amount of knife crime (mainly in London) is crazy high. Armed police are common in every country around the globe. Much prefer a dead criminal with a knife than an injured/dead police officer.

12. You can tell this is in Ralston, as there is another man running behind the chainsaw guy shouting ‘Excuse me young man. How much to do both the back and front hedge at my bungalow?’ . So hard to get good staff these days.
