Thieves steal lifesaving defibrilla­tor

-

Thieves have stolen a potentiall­y life-saving piece of kit from a shop in Fife.

A defibrilla­tor was taken from a secure cabinet outside the Co-operative on High Street, Burntislan­d, at about 2:30am on Monday.

It was first installed by Burntislan­d First Aid Services Trust in May 2015 after around £850 was raised by the local community.

Constable Pat Devaney, of Kirkcaldy police station, said: “I would urge whoever took it to return it to its rightful place.”
