Police are hunting for a suspect following two housebreakings in West Lothian yesterday.
They say one resident was left “significantly distressed” and are appealing for information from the general public.
The two incidents in the Eliburn area of Livingston happened at properties in Foxknowe Place and Primrose Place between 3.25pm and 3.40pm.
A man was seen carrying a large bag over his shoulder walking towards Peel Park and officers are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen anything. He is described as white, of slim build, wearing dark trousers, a light coloured top and white trainers.
Detective Sergeant John Bowerbank, of Livingston CID, said: “One woman who surprised a man in her home was left significantly distressed and we are appealing to anyone who can help with our enquiries to come forward.
“In particular we would like to speak to anyone who may have private CCTV and also drivers with dash-cam who may have been in the area.
“If you can help please call us on 101, quoting incidents 2296 and 2122 of Wednesday, 19 May, 2021, or make a call anonymously to the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
