AN APPEAL has been launched after a motorbike was stolen in North Berwick last week.

The grey Triumph Street Triple R, registration SK59 TVV, was taken between 4.45pm and 5.45pm last Wednesday (August 17) from outside the Scottish Seabird Centre.

The thief, or thieves, would have needed to either force the lock or transport the bike away.

The area was busy with people as it was a particularly hot day, and police officers are urging anyone who may have witnessed this to get in touch.

Likewise, anyone with information on the bike's current whereabouts is asked to contact officers via 101 or call the charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
