Police are appealing after a white Ford Focus RS was stolen from an Aberdeenshire car dealership.
The car was taken from Jim Reid Vehicle Sales at Morrison Way, Kintore, during the early hours of yesterday. It is understood the culprit then drove the car in the A96 direction.
The vehicle – which is valued at a low five-figure sum of money – has the registration YF10 DKK.
Constable Connor McKeen said: “We are carrying out inquiries to trace this vehicle and I would ask that anyone who has information or who has seen a vehicle matching the description gets in touch with us on 101 using reference CF0016810118.
“In particular we would request that the driver of a van who was in the area and was travelling behind the stolen vehicle as it travelled towards the A96 gets in touch. We would also ask that cars who may have dashcam footage and were in the area between 1am and 4am on Sunday contact us.”
