A MAN has been arrested after a teen was allegedly followed while walking home in Giffnock.

We previously reported that cops had launched an investigation after a man was reportedly acting suspiciously on Rowand Avenue in the town.

Officers say they received a report of the incident on Monday, January 8. 

It comes after a concerned resident took to social media to warn others in the area after their 17-year-old daughter was followed by a man on Sunday evening.

Now, police have confirmed a 26-year-old has been arrested and charged in connection with the incident.

He is set to appear in court today.
