Police are looking to track down three men in connection with a series of vandalisms to cars on the edge of Dundee.

A total of 16 were damaged or broken into in Invergowrie and Dundee Technology Park late last night.

Houses in the area were also targeted last week - police are treating all of them as linked.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: " We are appealing for information about an extensive series of vandalisms and car break-ins in Invergowrie and the Dundee Technology Park which happened between 10pm-midnight last night.

"Firstly, a black Hyundai i20 was broken into in Greystane Terrace, Invergowrie. Nothing was taken, and three male youths in their late teens and wearing dark hooded tops were seen to make off from there, and head into Dundee and the Technology Park.

"Shortly afterwards, a number of vandalisms were committed to four cars parked in Luna Place, four parked in Gemini Crescent, and a further six in Wurzburg Place.

"Also, a black Peugeot 2008 parked in Mariner Drive was broken into and property stolen from it.

"There may also be other cars or buildings affected which we have not yet been made fully aware of.

"We posted an appeal for information about a similar series of vandalisms in this area earlier this week, and we are treating all of them as linked.

"We are currently following a number of lines of enquiry, and there will be extra patrols in the Invergowrie and Menzieshill / Technology Park areas.
