A West Lothian pensioner's home was targeted by thieves last week after a number of watches were stolen.
Police in the area have launched an appeal for information after the property was broken into in Broxburn on Thursday (March 17.)
According to officers, the 77-year-old had been out of their home on East Main Street when the house was targeted in broad daylight.
Arriving between 10.30am and 12.30pm, police are now hoping to trace a vehicle that was spotted in the area 'distributing leaflets" at a similar time.
