Burlescombe burglar sought

He's nabbed a generator

Police investigating reports of a burglary from an agricultural building in Burlescombe, near Tiverton, are appealing for witnesses.

They were called to reports of a suspicious van seen near a farm shed next to St Mary’s Church around 5.40 p.m. on Saturday 11 March.

The van is believed to have been a Ford Transit long panel van with a 70 number plate and van hire insignia on the side in blue writing.

It is thought that entry was forced into the property, and a generator valued at around £300 was taken.

The suspect is described as a white man, aged in his mid-20s and wearing a light grey tracksuit.

Although this information is scant and almost a month after the event, police hope anyone with information will call them on 101 quoting reference 50230057569.
