Officers are seeking a man who may have information which could help with an alleged attempted murder investigation in Fife.

A 35-year-old woman was left permanently disfigured after suffering serious injuries during a disturbance at an address in Delgatie Court, Glenrothes, at around 9.05pm on Saturday.

She was taken to the Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy, where she remains in a serious condition.

Stephen Ramsay appeared at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court on Monday in connection with the incident.

He was charged with assault to serious injury, permanent disfigurement and attempted murder.

The 35-year-old of Glenrothes made no plea and was due to reappear within eight days.

Officers are trying to trace another man who may have relevant information that can assist their investigation.

This individual was standing at a bus stop in Woodside Way, near to the Bankhead Roundabout in Glenrothes, at around 8.05pm on Saturday evening.

It is believed he witnessed two men alight a bus that had travelled from Edinburgh and may have briefly interacted with them.

Detective Inspector Paul Dick from Glenrothes CID said: "If you are the person we are looking to speak to, please contact us immediately.

"I would like to stress, this is purely to assist our inquiries."
