Witness appeal after thefts from vans
Police are appealing for information after Ford transit vans in South Devon have been targeted by thieves.
This week alone there have been multiple thefts in Paignton and Brixham. Thefts have also occurred in Newton Abbot.
On each occasion the van was entered by means unknown or broken into and valuable power tools and hand tools worth thousands of pounds were stolen. There have been other similar crimes in Devon with a similar method used, and police believe that a vehicle linked to these crimes is a silver estate vehicle, possibly an Audi or Ford Mondeo.
We would like to hear from anyone offered second-hand power tools for sale.
Please consider removing valuable tools from vehicles, particularly overnight.
Anyone with information, or CCTV in the areas mentioned, is asked to contact police via 101@dc.police.uk, or by telephone on 101.
