Police are hunting for two men who hurled racist abuse and violent threats outside a Dundee takeaway.
The incident unfolded near Mazaydar, formerly known as Tasty Point, on Fintry Road at around 7pm on Monday.
A statement from Police Scotland said: “A member of the public outside the shop was approached, threatened and racially abused outside the shop by two men.
“When staff from the shop went to assist, they were also threatened with violence and subjected to vile racist abuse.
‘I was a little scared’
“The two men responsible then left and headed off down Fintry Road in the direction of Forfar Road/Morrisons.”
A worker who was on shift at the takeaway when the incident took place told The Courier: “It was yesterday night.
“I heard some noises outside and saw some people arguing with one of our suppliers.

“The supplier wasn’t really injured on anything.”
