Crook wearing blue forensic gloves raids Scots restaurant offices for cash
This is the moment an Edinburgh restaurant was targeted by a crook who allegedly 'broke in and stole cash' whilst wearing blue forensic gloves.
CCTV clips have captured the man who broke into The Ranch in Sighthill at around 6am on Sunday, May 25.
The hooded figure can be seen rummaging through the office of the diner. He is also carrying a black backpack. Another CCTV still shows the back of the man as he rifles through a drawer.
As Edinburgh Live reports, the restaurant shared an appeal for information to help them identify the brazen crook.
Furious residents branded the man a "low life," as they reacted to the post.
Posting online, The Torfin said: "This lovely gentlemen broke into our sister restaurant The Ranch the other day. We know one of our amazing followers will recognise this face.
"Hit us up with names that we can hand over to the police and we will reward for any successful information!"

JetBlue plane passengers 'performed sex act mid-flight in front of kids'
The couple are being prosecuted over the alleged incident. A couple performed a sex act in the middle of a flight, it has been claimed. Trista L Reilly and Christopher Drew Arnold are said to have been intimate with each other as kids watched on. They were arrested following the flight in question and are now being prosecuted over the alleged incident, which is said to have taken place on July 19, 2025. Court papers claim a flight attendant spotted 43-year-old Reilly "making up-and-down movements with her head while she was face down on Mr Arnold's lap". The legal documents state that the JetBlue flight attendant in question had been approached at 10:28am that morning by a mother travelling with her two children. The two children allegedly directly saw Reilly and Arnold, from Connecticut, engaged in the act. The couple were arrested at 11:30am shortly after the plane landed at Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, according to ABC affiliate WWSB. They were both charged with two counts lewd and lascivious exhibition in the presence of minors, which is a felony. They were released without bail and are due to be arraigned in court on August 15, the CT Post reported. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

The New York Post reports police records from Danbury, Connecticut, show 42-year-old Arnold was arrested in March for disorderly conduct and assault. JetBue told the Mirror that the alleged behaviour on the flight - from John F Kennedy International Airport in New York to Sarasota, Florida - was "completely unacceptable" and is "not tolerated" by the airline. The company said: "Immediately upon receiving the report, our crew members acted swiftly to engage JetBlue's security team and law enforcement. We are fully cooperating with the investigation and these customers are no longer welcome to fly JetBlue." It comes after a light aircraft nosedived into a highway in Brescia, Italy, killing two people onboard. Cars were seen driving through the ensuing fireball. The plane can be seen rapidly falling to the ground in a steep descent. Miraculously, the aircraft managed to miss all of the cars and other vehicles on the Corda Molle at the time. Two people onboard the aircraft, a 75-year-old lawyer from Milan named Sergio Ravaglia and his female partner Anna Maria De Stefano, 50, are reported to have died. The crash occurred after midday on Tuesday after the plane took off from the Gagnano Trebbiense runway in the Piacenza region, Italian broadcasting channel Sky TG24 said. Officials investigating the incident involving the 'ultralight' plane have said it will be difficult to determine what caused the crash. Claudio Nolli, 49, was also driving nearby. She said she had entered a ring road close to the crash when flames suddenly erupted in her eye line. She said: 'I entered the ring road and saw a burst of flame, without understanding what had happened. "I had a truck in front of me and I crashed into it, passing through the flames. Then there was a loud bang, it was a ball of fire. I never thought something like this could happen to me. "At the time, I assumed the truck in front of me had lost something; I had no idea it was a plane. I had seen it in the air before, but I realized later. For twenty seconds, it missed me too."
