I have heard of problems with seagulls in Aberdeen, if some people are walking along the street eating a sandwich some seagulls dive bomb and take the sandwich from that person, I even saw a video of a seagull going into a shop somewhere and "stealing" a packet of crisps then flying away to enjoy the crisps somewhere else, I have not heard of them dive bombing runners unless they were running with some food in their hands
