Detectives are appealing for information after the break-in at a licensed premises in Livingston.
They are also carrying out enquiries into an attempted break-in at a business nearby a short time earlier.
The attempted break-in happened shortly after 12am on Thursday, November 24 at a business on Jackson Place, where an unsuccessful attempt was made to gain entry.
