Detective Constable Lesley Duncan based at Dunfermline CID said: “I wish to thank the public for their assistance and information during this inquiry.

“I would also like to take this opportunity to remind the public about the importance of keeping their homes, garages and vehicles locked and secure at all times.

“We continue to undertake a huge amount of preventative work to tackle this form of organised crime, however we require the continued support from the public to ensure that it has the desired impact.”
