Puff Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 [h=1]Break-in at Great Dorset Steam Fair warehouse[/h] http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-15796341?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed Equipment used by the Great Dorset Steam Fair has been stolen from a warehouse. Police said offenders broke into locked shipping containers in the warehouse at Tarrant Hinton near Blandford sometime during the first two weeks of November. Equipment worth about £120,000 was taken, including iron fence stakes, brass taps and steel cabling. Police said they were keen to hear from scrap dealers or anyone offered items for an unusually low price. The five-day steam fair takes place in Tarrant Hinton each August and attracts about 250,000 visitors. ++++++ Scumbags, the lot of them!!

Smithy Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I suppose not a surprise in today's day and age, with people cashing in. Also the site where they are kept, despite being on an A road, is pretty much ideal for something like this to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzkpfw-e Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Highly likely to have been perpetrated by some who have visited the fair in the summer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
