The M&S Foodhall at Gallagher Retail Park in Dundee remains closed for a second day after a break-in and serious assault.

The incident – which took place in the early hours of Wednesday morning – forced the store to shut as police officers cordoned off the scene.

One man, 40, has been arrested in connection with the incident and is due to appear in court on Thursday.

An M&S spokeswoman told The Courier on Thursday the shop is not yet able to reopen.

Police were called to the scene at 4am on Wednesday following what was described as a serious assault and break-in.
