Police appeal for information following the theft of a JCB from a school in Dogmersfield.

Sometime between 6pm on Friday, May 25 and 10am on Saturday, May 26, a JCB forklift was stolen from a building site at Dogmersfield Primary School, Chatter Alley.

PC Dave McDonald, of Yateley police station, said: “The area is an isolated location and this expensive item would have required a large vehicle or trailer to remove it.

“The JCB was being used to build the new school assembly/sports hall. Without this machinery, it could result in delays in the completion of this project which will affect the school and ultimately the children.”

Anyone with any information should contact PC McDonald at Yateley police station on 0845 045 45 45 .
