Masked gangs target Livingston homes, stealing jewellery and cash

A series of high-value residential thefts has been reported in Livingston, where masked gangs targeted multiple homes. The intruders gained entry to properties, search the premises, and escaped with significant quantities of jewellery and cash.

Local authorities believe these incidents may be linked due to the similar methods used by the perpetrators, who wore masks to conceal their identities. The raids have caused significant concern among the local community, prompting an increase in security awareness.

Police Scotland detectives have launched an intensive investigation to track down the gang. Officers are appealing for any witnesses who may have seen groups of individuals acting suspiciously, or unidentified vehicles parked in residential estates around the time of the break-ins, to contact the police immediately.
