An Edinburgh resident has been left freaked out after catching a man in her garden on doorbell footage.
The incident happened at around 9.30pm on January 3, on Restalrig Road. The resident said he ‘attempted to break the clothes line before bursting the bird feeder’.
According to other locals, the same male also approached other properties in the area.
Lorraine, who shared the clip with Edinburgh Live, said: “He tried to break our clothes line and then burst the bird feeder for no apparent reason.
“One of my neighbours, a young lassie, said the same guy tried to get into her flat and she had to push him to the door.”
