HUNDREDS of solar panels have been found by police investigating a "large scale" theft.
A man has been arrested after Evesham Safer Neighbourhood Team found more than 550 solar panels.
It followed reports of a theft from a solar panel farm outside Broadway.
A spokesperson for Evesham SNT said: "We have received a report of a large scale theft from a solar panel farm on the outskirts of Broadway.
"Following on from some received information, Evesham SNT have worked with our Divisional support team and have located in excess of 550 stolen panels, a male suspect has been arrested on suspicion of theft.
"The solar panels were located just over our policing border in Gloucestershire.
"Enquiries are ongoing, and we are working with the solar farm to look at ways to prevent further thefts.
"Rural crime is a priority, and we will continue to target the offenders who cause the most harm in our community."
