Duck raid leaves family devastated
THIEVES have left a Lothian family "devastated" after eight rare ducks were stolen from a pen in their garden in Bilston, Midlothian.
The four breeding pairs of Khaki Campbell ducks were looked after by 13 year-old Stewart Thornley, who raised them from eggs.
Police fear the fowl were stolen to order and are calling on the nest-raiders to hand them back.
A Lothian and Borders Police spokesman said: "We are appealing for any information that can help reunite the ducks with their owner."
