A DELIVERY driver was threatened with a knife by a callous thug who demanded money.
The incident happened in Magdalen Way around 6.50pm last night.
The takeaway driver was in a black Ford Focus when the suspect leant in the window and allegedly pulled a knife on him.
The suspect then ran off.
He is described as a white man with a local accent, slim build and sunken around the eyes. He was wearing a navy blue jacket with the hood up and dark coloured trousers. He may have some facial hair.
Detective Constable James Campbell, of Paisley CID, said: “Thankfully no-one was injured as a result of this but it was a frightening experience for a man who was simply doing his job.
“I'm appealing to anyone who may have witnessed this incident or has any relevant information to contact us.”
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101 quoting incident 2738 of October 14 2021. Alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111.
