TWO women have been remanded in custody after stealing from various shops in Ayr including Toy Town.

It is claimed that between 3.45pm and 4pm on Friday, September 23 a 19-year-old and 30year-old were arrested after they were caught nicking two charm bracelets from Toy Town, nail varnish from Poundland, a Yankee Candle from Card Land and a ring from Ogham Jewellery worth £25.

The Ayr Advertiser Series understands that the goods taken totalled £60 and other items were seized from them.

Local officers are continuing their enquiries after the pair were detained. As the paper went to press they were due to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court. There were no updates on the situation.
