Thieves break into Pearson's garden centre in Duns this morning.
Thieves broke into Pearson’s Garden Centre in the early hours of this morning, and made off with an electric cement mixer and some Spear and Jackson garden tools.

The two thieves were captured on the centre’s CCTV system between 1 and 3am, using a ladder to gain entry, and the company posted the video on social media this morning.

The perpetrators were wearing masks, but it’s hoped their trainers, also caught on camera, will help police trace them.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "We were called at around 9am on Thursday, March 17, to reports of a break-in at a property on Station Road, Duns.

"Enquiries are ongoing."
