Aylesbury Vale Police have been getting a number rural crime offences reported to them which have predominantly been committed across the northern part of their area (along the A421 around Buckingham).
They are linking these crimes to a larger series of similar offences committed across the surrounding county forces, in particular Northamptonshire, with the offenders primarily targeting rural farms/ locations and stealing caravans, quad bikes, trailers and tools which had been stored on there.
If you are a caravan owner or live on a farm, Police are asking you ensure that you have sufficient security measures in place, as the offenders have been known to travel across fields (and through hedgerows) in order to access the items to steal.
You can also report any suspicious incidents on 999 if it is in progres. The offences are generally being committed overnight; however the offenders are also believe to be carrying out recces in daylight hours.
