The cordon runs from outside The Grosvenor pub to Sainsbury’s on one side of the road. Above the shops, there appears to be a broken window on the third floor of the building.
The large bay window has a piece of wood covering the open pane, while a curtain is half-hanging off the rail.

The nature of the incident is currently unknown. Police Scotland have been contacted for comment.
