Alcohol and lottery tickets have been stolen from a Co-op store in Nairn.
Thieves are believed to have stolen the goods after breaking into the building on the town’s High Street in the early hours of Thursday.
Police were alerted to the incident at around 4.35am.
Images show big cracks in one of the store’s windows, which appear to have been caused as a result of the break-in.
The supermarket premises was cordoned off, with officers still seen at the scene at noon.
Co-op has confirmed there were no customers or staff in the store at the time of the break-in and the building was reopened to the public in the afternoon.
The value of the stolen items is still unknown as officers carry out inquiries to establish the details of the incident.
