Three people have been charged after police recovered thousands of pounds worth of property which was stolen from locations in Fife and West Lothian last year.
Items were reported stolen from Leslie's Bike Store in Glenrothes and a garden centre in Dunfermline in December and October respectively.
A garden centre in Broxburn in West Lothian was also targeted in November.
But months on, the items, including bikes, Christmas trees, barbecues, lawn mowers, plants and statues, have been returned to their rightful owners.
They were recovered after police carried out a bust on properties in Ayr, Prestwick and Auchintiber on Wednesday.
Two men, aged 48 and 34, and a woman, aged 36, have been charged in relation to the thefts.
All three are due to appear at court at a later date.
Detective Constable Fraser Simpson, of Glenrothes CID, said: "The incidents were reported last year and as a result of our investigation, we are now able to return the property to its rightful owners.
"We believe there are still a number of bikes outstanding so if anyone has been offered bikes for sale in Ayrshire recently, perhaps at a reduced price or unusual circumstances, I would encourage people to please contact us on 101 quoting incident number 0862 of 9 December 2019."
