The men stole various items including jewellery and a blue BMW, which was later recovered in the Penicuik area of Midlothian.
On this occasion, the men left in the direction of Biggar Main Street in a small white hatchback style vehicle.

I would appeal to motorists with dash-cam footage to get in touch, you may have captured something that could assist our enquiries.”
