She says the thieves left alcohol and personal belongings along with false number plates, which have all been siezed by the police.

She said: “The police tried to pull the car over and they raced away along Maryhill, hit a lampost in Sandbank Street at the flats and then dumped the car in Sunningdale Road. The police lost the car so they must have been going very fast.”

Police officers are currently investigating.

The mum now says she is too scared to sleep in her own house at night because is worried that the criminals may return. They broke the lock on her living room window to take her car keys and house keys which were on the window ledge.
