Detectives are appealing for information after a series of break-ins at houses in the Highlands.

Incidents have been reported at 11 properties in Carrbridge and Boat of Garten between Thursday, 21 December and Friday 22nd December 2023

A further incident was reported at a property in Invergarry between 8.30am and 3.30pm on Friday, 22 December.

It isn’t confirmed if this is linked to the incidents in Badenoch & Strathspey but it cannot be ruled out.
