Luxury cars nicked in raid at Scots garage as burnt out motor dumped nearby

Police have launched a probe after luxury cars were snatched from a car garage in Falkirk.

Three vehicles were nicked, including two BMW's, during the raid at H&J Burgoyne in Airth.

The motors were seen driving at speed towards Stirling after the incident between 3am and 9am on Sunday morning.

A white Skoda Fabia was found burnt out a short distance from the garage.

Keys to other vehicles were also taken and the main office completely trashed with the CCTV system ripped out.

The car garage owner branded the thieves 'vicious' after his business was vandalised during the robbery.
