Electrical equipment stolen from Telford school
Thieves have stole thousands of pounds worth of electrical equipment, including computers from a Telford school.
The break-in occurred at Woodlands Primary School in Ironbridge Road in Madeley some time between 6.30pm on Monday and 6am yesterday.
The thieves forced their way into the school and stole property include 16 white Apple Mac books, 15 Apple ipod touch units and 15 Apple ipod docking stations, which are valued at around £20,000 in total.
