Equipment and vehicles worth £28,000 have been stolen from a farm.

Police said thieves stole the goods from Hanson’s Hay and Straw Suppliers at Aynhams Hill, Bracewell, between September 17 and 18.

A Sanderson TL7 telescopic handler and white Scania truck, V784 DDK, were taken from the farm, off the A59.

Police believe the teleporter, which is used to load bales of hay and straw, was removed from a covered barn and driven into a skip-like container, coupled to the back of the Scania truck.
