Police say they believe a spate of thefts from vehicles and properties in the Gannochy area of Perth could be connected.
Cars and properties in Comely Bank, Haddon Road and Pitcullen Crescent were targeted during the break-ins between April 22-27.
Police say most of the thefts took place in the early hours of April 24, although they add that it is possible the more were tried than they are aware of.
“We would like to remind everyone to please ensure that your vehicles are as secure as possible at all times,” a force spokesperson said.
Officers investigating the crimes say private CCTV footage shows a person described as male, of tall and medium build who is wearing all dark clothing and black trainers with white soles.
