Hot asparagus!
1:14pm Tuesday 13th May 2008
POLICE were this week hunting thieves who stole asparagus worth £400 from land in Pershore Road, Evesham.
The theft occurred between 11pm last night and 6am today.
Police are appealing for witnesses who may have seen anything suspicious on - or alongside - the road between the given times.
Officers believe it is unlikely that the asparagus will be offered for sale locally because potential outlets with existing suppliers would naturally be suspicious about any offer from an unknown source.
"It is far more likely that the asparagus has been taken some distance away and is being sold by those who took it using their own outlet, possibly a stall," said spokesman Richard Bull.
Anyone with information can contact officers on 08457 444 888. Information can also be given - anonymously - to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
