Car and power tools stolen in Roden burglary
Police are appealing for information after thieves stole a car and a range of power tools from outbuildings on farm land in Telford.
Thieves forced their way into premises on land off Roden Lane in Roden some time between 6pm on Sunday and 4.45pm on Monday.
A number of items including a Ford Escort registration SUA454W, which had recently been restored, were stolen.
Other items stolen include a Yamaha PW50 child's motorcycle, a Suzuki quad bike, a MIG welder, a Makita grinder, two nine inch buffers, a Stihl chainsaw, two Halfords socket sets in black plastic cases and one Halfords socket and spanner set.
Also stolen were various vehicle parts including two sets of Bilstein Hileover Mark 2 suspension legs and mini light alloy wheels with tyres.
Police are investigating the matter and are eager to trace anyone with information about the stolen items.
A Telford Police spokeswoman said: "The owner of the vehicle has spent a long time renovating the car so he is very upset
it has been stolen.
"On Sunday night the owner put a steering lock on the vehicle and removed the battery isolator key, which means the engine is unable to start without the key. Therefore in order to remove the vehicle, thieves would have needed a trailer of some kind to load the vehicle on to before taking it away.
"It is also highly probable that there were at least two offenders.
"If you saw or heard anything suspicious on Sunday night/Monday morning then we would really like to hear from you.
"We are especially keen to speak to anyone who saw a vehicle, namely a Ford Escort, being transported around the Telford area during that time."
Anyone with information should contact Telford Police on the new non-emergency contact number 101. Alternatively information can be passed anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
