A 50-year-old man has been charged in connection with two break-ins at a Borders mill.

It follows two incidents at Johnstons of Elgin in Hawick last week.

A man is due to appear in Selkirk Sheriff Court tomorrow (Monday) in connection with the incidents.

Detective Constable Sandy Blacklock, of Galashiels CID, said: “I would like to thank the public for their support during our investigation.

“A number of stolen goods have been recovered but we would urge members of the public to contact police if they are being approached to buy any items illegally.”
