News / Police seek help with investigation
SHETLAND police have asked anyone who has been offered a mountain bike or sporting equipment for sale to come forward to help them with an investigation.
The request follows a report that two male youths have been charged with breaking into commercial premises in Lerwick.
It is understood the police are investigating thefts that may have taken place over the past two months and they would be interested in hearing from anyone with information that might be of help.
Police also report that a 24 foot motor boat berthed at Hay’s Dock in the town was damaged some time last week between Wednesday and Friday. Again they request any information to help with their enquiries.
Meanwhile officers were called out after a number of complaints about loud music in Lerwick over the weekend. Several householders received warnings and one was charged.
Anyone wishing to contact the police can call Lerwick police station on 01595 692110.
