Constable Paul McNamee, of the road policing unit, has appealed for information.
He commented: “There were a number of people in the area when the incident happened. We have managed to speak to some of them — however, we would still appeal for further witnesses to come forward.”
Anyone with information can contact the police on non-emergency number 101.
Barrhead Road was closed for approximately five and a half hours as a result of the incident, re-opening at 10.15pm on the Saturday night.
