Two people in Livingston are recovering after a robbery and assault on Friday night.

Four men broke into a home on Southpark Place, at around 10.30pm on March 15.

A 48 year old woman and a 42 year old man were assaulted before the men left with a Sur-ron Lightbee electric motorcycle.

One of them is described as being in his early 30s with ginger hair, while the other three were wearing dark clothing and had their faces covered.

Detective Sergeant Lynn Myles, from Livingston CID, said: “This appears to have been an opportunistic crime, but we are carrying out extensive enquiries to establish the full circumstances.

“We are appealing for anyone with information on the incident, or if you believe you saw any suspicious activity in the Southpark Place area, to please come forward.

“We are also asking residents with video doorbells, or passing motorists with dash cams, to contact us as they may have useful footage for our enquiries.

“Please call police on 101, quoting incident 4068 of 15 March, 2024.”
