Police are appealing for information after a horsebox was stolen from a farm in St Michaels last Thursday (12th July).

The bright blue 18 tonne horsebox was stolen from Paddock Farm Stud on Blackpool Road sometime between 9.30am and 7:30pm.

PC Rachel Bibby said: “Despite the area being rural, the horsebox was stolen in broad daylight and I am convinced someone must have seen it in transit.

“The horsebox has a hole in the rear of the van on the ramp where the words ‘Horses’ are written. I’d urge anybody that thinks they may have seen this vehicle or with any information about its whereabouts to contact Lancashire Police quoting crime reference BC1202881.”
