Housebreakings - Longridge, Fauldhouse and Livingston, West Lothian
Police are appealing for information after five housebreakings in West Lothian.
Between Wednesday, 22 October and Saturday, 25 October 2025, four homes were broken into, with one home targeted twice.
The first incident was in Ridge Court, Longridge, around 9.30pm on Wednesday, 22 October. On this occasion high value jewellery was stolen.
Later that night, around 10.15pm, the occupant of a house in Main Street, Fauldhouse, woke to find a man in their home. The suspect ran off empty-handed and was seen to join two others in the street.
On Saturday, 25 October, between 5pm and 10.20pm, the same home in Main Street, Fauldhouse, was targeted again. Nothing was taken from within.
Around 7.20pm on Saturday, 25 October, a home in Curlew Brae, Livingston, was targeted but the suspects were disturbed at the address and fled, stealing a jewellery box.
Finally, in the evening/night of Saturday, 25 October, a house in Lochshot Place, Livingstone, was broken into. It has still to be confirmed what was stolen.
All three suspects are described as male, tall, slim, wearing dark coloured tracksuits, gloves and had their faces covered. They all had trainers on that had fluorescent stripes on the heel.
Detective Sergeant Kevin Clark, Livingston CID, said: “We believe that all these homes were targeted by the same three suspects. It would appear that their intent was to steal jewellery and that the houses were specifically chosen for that reason.
“Officers are checking CCTV from the area and making local enquiries. Due to the proximity of each address and the fact they were able to get to each quickly, we believe the thieves would have had access to a car and either drove or were dropped off at each address.
“If you saw anyone acting suspiciously in the area prior to or after the incidents, or indeed, saw a car in the days prior that looked out of place, then please call police.”
