Detectives are appealing for information following a spate of housebreakings, believed to be linked, in East Lothian.
Between Saturday, 14 February and Monday, 23 March, 2026, there were three high-value break-ins to homes: one in Longniddry and two in Gullane.
The first incident occurred between Saturday, 14 and Saturday, 28 February, on Gosford Road, Longniddry. A four-figure sum of jewellery was stolen.
Between Saturday, 7 and Monday, 23 March, a house on Hill Road, Gullane was targeted. This time, jewellery and watches worth an estimated five-figure sum were taken.
The third property targeted was on West Links Road, Gullane, between Sunday, 8 and Wednesday, 11 March. On this occasion a five-figure sum of jewellery was taken.
In each incident, entry was gained to the property by first floor window.
Detective Constable Arron McCall said: “From our investigations so far, we believe the same individuals have targeted these properties. On each occasion they appear to have known when the occupants were away from their homes.
“Officers have been checking local CCTV and carrying out door to door enquiries but we would also be interested in any relevant dash-cam or doorbell footage from each area around the times the break-ins happened.
“We’ve no doubt those responsible would have travelled to the addresses in a vehicle. If you have seen a vehicle that appeared either out of place, or with people acting suspiciously, in the areas, please get in touch with us.
“Any information, no matter how trivial you think it may be, can be reported via 101, quoting incident number 3588 of Sunday, 8 March, 2026. Alternatively, details can be passed anonymously to Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111.”
