Police recover suspected stolen cable and metal

Police are hoping to reunite suspected stolen cable and metal sheets with its rightful owners.

After reports of suspicious behaviour in Sneyd Green on 23 November, police found an abandoned vehicle with a large quantity of cable and metal sheets.

A subsequent search of the area led officers to more cable and metal sheets, together with three copper water tanks.

The exact list of items recovered is:

• Reels of earth cable - red or green
• Reels of blue cable
• Reels of black cable
• Metal sheets
• Three water tanks.

It is believed that the items are more than likely from an industrial premises and due to the substantial amount recovered it would have had to be moved in two vehicles.

PC Claire Mace said: "We would like to trace the owners of these items and hand back property which is rightfully theirs.

"I would encourage people who own such property to check their stocks to make sure it is still in situ.

If not there is a chance this property could be yours and you have not realised it is missing."

Anyone who thinks any of the above items are theirs is asked to contact PC Claire Mace at Staffordshire Police on 101.
