A MAN has been arrested and charged in connection with more than a dozen thefts of milk in Dunbar.

Problems with milk being stolen have been highlighted at the town’s community council meetings in recent months.

Constable Gavin Ross, who was unable to attend the meeting on Monday evening, sent a report confirming that someone had now been arrested.

He said: “In recent weeks, there have been about 15 reports of milk thefts from the area of housing at the west end of Brodie Road.

“On Sunday, one male was arrested and charged with all thefts.”
