The teenager is alleged to have been acting suspiciously near homes in Stirling Gate
A TEENAGER has been arrested for allegedly sneaking into gardens and peering inside Linwood homes.
The 19-year-old is said to have first been spotted lurking in a garden in Stirling Gate at around 2.30am this morning.
Officers were called but he had fled the scene by the time they arrived.
But, the alarm was raised again at around 5am when he is alleged to have been acting suspiciously near a home in Napier Gardens.
This time, cops arrived and arrested the teenager.
He is also alleged to have been found with a small stash of cocaine.
He is due to appear in Paisley Sheriff Court at a later date.
