Generator stolen from closed plantation

Police are investigating after thieves targeted an area of the Colden plantation currently closed to the public.

A generator has been taken from a secure box trailer at the site near Injebreck in Braddan.

The area is currently closed to the public to prevent the spread of a disease affecting trees there.

The box trailer was forced open between 1.00pm on Thursday last week and 10.00 the following morning.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Onchan Police Station.
