We are investigating the Theft of 600 Sheep which were stolen from secure fields in Kemerton, Gloucestershire. The theft occurred between 10:00 hrs & 17:00 hrs on Friday 20th December 2024 when they have been seen being loaded onto a lorry. 

 We are keen to hear from anyone who may have any information relating to the theft or that may have been in the area around the time of the incident and heard or seen anything suspicious. We are also urging people to report suspicious sales of meat following this theft as it's feared the sheep may have been stolen to be illegally butchered for meat.
