Appeal after break-in at industrial estate in Linlithgow

Police are appealing for information following a housebreaking at a unit within an industrial estate in Linlithgow.

Between 5pm on Thursday, 16 March and 6 am on Friday, 17 March 2023, access was gained to a business unit within the estate near to Avalon Place and Mill Road and a two-figure sum of money was stolen.

Detective Constable Christopher Watson, Livingston CID, said:

“It appears that whoever broke into the unit went to a considerable effort to gain access by forcing entry through a wall.

“Whilst the housebreaking took place after normal working hours, I am keen to hear from anyone who may have heard drilling or banging from the units or saw people of a vehicle which seemed out of place.

“Anyone with information about the incident can call police via 101. Please quote incident 0810 of Friday, 17 March 2023. Alternatively, information can be passed anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
