VEHICLES have been stolen from farms in the Chipping Norton and Heythrop area, Thames Valley Police have warned.

Thieves took a Kawasaki Mule and a Quad Bike last week.

They also stole a trailer and a collection of farm tools.

A spokesman for the force urged people to be on the lookout for suspicious vehicles in the area, especially in yards an lanes.

He added that offenders would drive around in the daytime to select their targets and then return later to steal the items.

Police are urging people to report suspicious vehicles and mark their own property using CESAR Property Marking.
