Two Aberdeenshire shops broken into, as four figure sums of cash stolen

Two shops in Aberdeenshire were broken into, and four-figure sum of cash was stolen in the early hours of Saturday morning. The first shop on Main Street, Aberchirder, was broken into shortly after midnight, and a four-figure sum of cash was stolen. Later, at around 2.15am, a shop on Commerce Street in Insch was broken into, with more cash stolen. Police enquiries suggest three men dressed in dark clothing were in the area at the time. There was also a silver BMW 3 series seen at around the same time, which they may have been using. Detective Sergeant Richard Cooper said: 'Enquiries we have carried out so far suggest that both break-ins may be linked. 'I am appealing to anyone who saw anything suspicious, including any vehicles nearby, to get in touch. 'Please check any private CCTV or dash-cam that you might have for information that could help with our investigation.' Anyone who can help is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 0117 of Saturday, 14 June, 2025. Calls can also be made anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Man arrested over murder of two Scots outside Spanish bar

Eddie Lyons Jr and Ross Monaghan died after a gunman opened fire outside Monaghans Bar in Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol earlier this month. On Friday, officers from Merseyside Police arrested a 44-year-old man on behalf of Spanish authorities on two counts of murder. He appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Saturday for extradition proceedings and will remain in custody. A spokesperson for the National Crime Agency said: 'On Friday June 13, officers from Merseyside Police arrested a 44-year-old man in the Liverpool area on behalf of the Spanish authorities for two counts of murder. 'The operation was supported by officers from the NCA's National Extradition Unit. 'The individual appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Saturday June 14 for the commencement of extradition proceedings. He was remanded in custody.' The attack took place at around 11pm when a car pulled up outside the bar and a masked man got out before opening fire as the two men stood outside. The gunman fled in the car and both men died at the scene. At the time, Police Scotland said the attack did not appear to be linked with a series of criminal acts by rival groups in Scotland, and that any speculation was 'not helpful' to the investigation. The statement read: 'The investigation into the fatal shootings in Fuengirola is being carried out by Spanish police. 'Police Scotland is supporting Spanish police where requested, however, at this time we have no officers deployed within Spain. 'There is currently no intelligence to suggest the deaths of these two men in Spain are linked to the recent criminal attacks in Scotland being investigated as part of Operation Portaledge. 'Any misinformation or speculation linking the events in Spain are not helpful to the ongoing investigations in either country. 'There is also nothing to suggest that the shooting in Fuengirola was planned from within Scotland.' Operation Portaledge is investigating a suspected gang feud linked with a number of shootings, firebombings and assaults in the Glasgow and Edinburgh areas since March. More than 40 people have been arrested in connection with the incidents.
