Darren Malone faces three charges of theft of a motor vehicle and a further two charges of theft by housebreaking. Three vehicles were reported stolen from the Hawco dealer on The Wards in Elgin in the early hours of January 14. The 25-year-old made no plea when he appeared in private at Inverness Sheriff Court yesterday (THURS). Malone had his case committed for further examination and he was released on bail. A date is yet to be set for a future court appearance.
