A microwave appears to have plunged from a third floor window on Morgan Street, damaging a car parked below.
The kitchen appliance plummeted into a black Mini Cooper outside the block of flats, smashing the vehicle’s windscreen.
The circumstances surrounding the incident are unknown, although police have attended the scene.
The news comes just two years after a toilet dropped from the same block to the street below.
One local resident, who did not want to be named, said his neighbour had been the first person to tell him what had happened.
He said: “It happened just across the road from me. The Mini has its front windshield cracked and everyone was saying it was because a microwave fell on to it from a window on the third floor.”
Thankfully, nobody was injured in what could have been a fatal accident had someone been passing by at the time.
Dawn Glen, 40, who lives by the flat where the microwave fell, said: “It’s not very surprising to be honest.
“I have a photograph from two Christmases ago when a toilet was thrown out of a window in the same block.
“I heard all the shouting and something smash — it sounded like glass.
“If the microwave had hit someone it could have killed them.
“Even small objects falling from a top floor window could injure someone, but a microwave could be deadly.
“And then there’s the detritus that it leaves behind, all the lumps of metal and glass.
“The person whose house it came from could have had no idea if anyone was below. If there was a moving car it could have caused a serious accident.”
Another resident from further along the street, Alan Jackson, 51, added: “You can see there’s a big crack in the windscreen where the oven hit the car.
“I’ve heard a lot of noise coming from that block in the past.
“Whoever let that happen is an idiot — it could have easily killed someone.
Police Scotland confirmed officers attended Morgan Street after reports of a disturbance on Sunday.
The car was still on the street as of yesterday.
