Cumbernauld restaurant robbed

The raider gained access to the business in South Muirfield Road between 11.40pm yesterday (Wednesday) and 3.30am today.

Police have confirmed that the thief raked round the building and pocketed a three figure sum of cash - but the matter did not end there.

For the thief helped himself to supplies of food from the restaurant kitchen.

Officers confirmed that estimated value of the theft is £600.

The incident follows a spate-of break ins within Cumbernauld of late - including the Raw Taekwondo gym last month where cash was taken.

Any witnesses are asked to contact 101.
