A number of power tools and a quantity of heavy lead have been stolen from a home in Angus.
A garage at a property on North Street, in Newtyle, was broken into sometime between September 7 – 12 with the thieves damaging the garage door before making off with the goods.
The lead flashing would have likely needed two people to carry it and a van to transport it.
The property itself is surrounded by hedges and not overlooked by other properties but police believe that the damage to the garage door would have caused a “considerable amount of noise” possibly alerting neighbours.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “The garage door of a property in the street was forced open, and a number of items taken. Along with some powertools, a quantity of lead flashing was stolen, which would have most likely needed 2 persons to remove it and a van to transport it. The garage they were stored in suffered noticable damage when entry was forced.
