“Sergeant George Howe from the Cotswolds Neighbourhood Policing Team said: “We understand how much of an impact rural crimes can have on victims livelihoods when items like tools and machinery are stolen.
“Often victims lose out on a lot of money due to needing to replace the stolen items or are unable to work completely which is not acceptable.
“We are determined to identify the offenders and I would like to remind residents of the importance of submitting information they have, no matter how big or small, as it could be the one thing we need to catch those responsible and stop anyone else from being targeted. “
If you feel you have been a victim or could be a possible target, we can offer further crime prevention advice on a one to one basis. Please contact our team onneighbourhoodwatch@gloucestershire.police.uk
