POLICE are appealing for witnesses and CCTV footage following the theft of a quad bike and tools from a property in West Anstey, North Devon.

Offenders broke into sheds at the rural property overnight between February 2 and 3.

Several high-value items were taken including a green Polaris 570 quad bike, an orange Husqvarna 550 XP chainsaw and a solar pump.

The quad bike is distinctive due to a black-coloured dog box on the back.

Officers are investigating and appealing for anyone who saw or heard anything suspicious around the St Petrock’s Church and Badlake Lane area of the village to contact them.

They would especially like to hear from anyone with CCTV or doorbell cameras in the surrounding area who may have captured the incidents, or anyone who may have been offered the items for sale.

Please contact police online or by telephone on 101, quoting crime reference number 50250028006.
