A nurse has been left with "the fear" after someone left a "threatening" letter on her car windscreen.
The woman, who has not been named, was heading back to work after being signed off for six weeks due to an illness, but when she got to her car she found a note that made her shiver. The crudely scrawled letter, which was left on the windscreen of her vehicle parked in a private car park in the west end, told her she was in the wrong space and to "keep her eyes open".
It read: "This is for the nurse on call. Please park your Audi in your own space, you stay at [redacted] so much have a number to park on. We have been on to your work at [redacted]. We have been on to housing, the police and estate agent. We will be getting your car clamp put on. We are just all fed up with you going into our spaces. Can wait to see what's going to happen. Keep your eyes opened."
The young woman is now worried after reading the folded-up note hidden under her windscreen wiper. She told Glasgow Live: "I was already anxious going to my car because I had been off for so long It was stuck under my window wiper as if they were trying to hide it, but they wanted me to know it was there.
"It was folded up in a tiny square but I noticed it on the front of my car. I read it while I was standing outside the car and looked around to see if anyone was there. The car park was basically empty because everyone was at work.

"After getting to the end of it, I had to make sure my car was okay. I was really panicking at work. I don't know whose space is whose, people park in different places every day. I just park where there is a space. It mentions the spaces are numbered, but none of them are."
After phoning the factors of the flat, the nurse found out that this is the second threatening note that had been left on a vehicle in the car park. The letter is still playing on the worried woman's mind. She said: "I felt sick and scared. I've never had anyone leave a note politely asking me not to park here.
"No one has come up to me and asked. It's quite an aggressive letter to leave on my windscreen. I keep reading it and it has given me the fear. Two years ago, the NHS was getting clapped now I'm getting notes left on my car."
In the letter, the individual claimed that they had reported the woman to police, the housing association and work, which they proceeded to name in the note. A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We received a report of a threatening letter being left on a car on Great Western Road, Glasgow on Monday, September 4, 2023. Enquiries are at an early stage.”
