Police investigating after Livingston's Tony Macaroni Arena broken in to

Police are investigating after Livingston's Tony Macaroni Arena was broken in to in the early hours this morning.

A group gained entry to one of the suites between 3am and 4:15am and stole hundreds of pounds from the stadium. They then took a white van parked outside, which was later involved in a crash on Almondvale Road at 4:30am.

The vehicle, with the registration SY12 UGV, crashed in to a lamppost but the culprits made off before police arrived at the scene.

Detective Constable Kenny Alexander from Livingston CID said: "The football stadium is close to a residential area, with other businesses nearby and as such, someone may have witnessed suspicious activity or got a good look at the suspects, despite the early hour of the morning.

"If you believe you have any information that can assist this investigation then please contact police immediately.

"Our initial examination of the van suggests at least one of the occupants may have been hurt and so we'd also request that members of the public who saw anyone with injuries, that may have been as a result of the collision on Almondvale Road, to also get in touch."
