Police investigate warehouse raid in Bathgate
Hundreds of packages were opened
An investigation is underway after a warehouse was broken into in Bathgate over the Christmas weekend.
The building in Whiteside Industrial Estate was raided between 5pm on Friday 24th December and Tuesday 28th December.
A quantity of goods were stolen.
Constable Chris Watson, Police Scotland, said: “We believe that the thieves, who had previously targeted the warehouse, returned and stole the goods. It's possible they had been in the premises for a while as hundreds of parcels, awaiting delivery, had been opened with the contents of some stolen.
"At the moment we do not know the value of what has been taken, but it's obvious that the thieves know what they were looking for.
"If you have any information about the housebreaking, or were maybe in the area over the weekend and saw something suspicious, then please contact police via 101 quoting reference number 0522 of Tuesday, 28 December, 2021."
