Allotments – Break-in & Theft
An incident took place earlier this week (14th October) whereby all the sheds at our village allotments at Michaels Field, Bishopsteignton, were broken into.
It appears that all padlocks were cut open using bolt cutters and a short crowbar.
The thieve(s) appear to have taken nothing except our new lawn mower.
If anyone has any idea who could be responsible or if you’ve seen anything suspicious in the allotment area, can you please let us know.
This was a significant investment for our village group and we are now looking as to how we make up this shortfall.
The stolen lawnmower is a Honda 16″ petrol mower worth (new) £280. (picture below)
The incident has been reported to the police.
