A dog has been returned to its owners almost five months after it was allegedly stolen from their home on the north coast of Scotland.
The Collie was allegedly nicked from a home in Wick, Caithness, in March, and was recovered by officers after a routine traffic stop in Milnathort, near Kinross, on Monday, August 8 - around 230 miles away.
A 66-year-old man has now been charged in connection with the alleged theft, along with alleged road offences. A report has been submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
