“Officers are currently checking CCTV and speaking to neighbours in case anyone saw the two men who ran off towards James Campbell Court afterwards.
“This happened mid-afternoon and there would have been people about, so if you saw any one acting suspiciously or have any information that will assist our enquiry, then please contact Ayr CID via 101. Quote reference number 2291 of the 9th November when calling.
