Urgent message from Dorset Police – Suspicious males

Dorset police have received reports from the Fifehead Neville area of North Dorset where four males in a blue car, possibly an old style Cavalier or Nova, with a partial registration number of E672***

These males were disturbed at a property which is set back from the main road by approximately 3/4 mile. They gave an excuse of looking for another address and were aggressive towards the home owner who discovered them.

They did manage to steal a STIHL petrol strimmer and blade before the home owner returned.

If anyone believes they may recognise this car, we would like any information passed to us on the Dorset Police 101 number quoting incident 02:312

We would also like to continue to remind all residents to remain alert and continue to report any suspicious behaviour.

Thankyou
