12-yr-old girl's Christmas present rabbit stolen
Thieves steal animals from a new farm shop in The New Forest
Two rabbits were stolen overnight from the new farm shop at Nomansland.
The animals - one of which was going to be given as a Christmas gift for a 12 year old girl - were taken from New Forest Veg Barn in School Road, between 7pm on Wednesday (Dec 22) and 9am on Thursday (Dec 23).
One of the rabbits is a female, described as white with black ears and three black spots. She was stolen from inside a hutch. The second rabbit was male, black and white, and was kept in a cage in a separate run.
The enclosures were fox proof and the rabbits could not escape on their own.
The farm shop is new, and only opened very recently.
POLICE APPEAL FOR INFORMATION
Police are asking anyone with information who may have seen anything suspicious in the area overnight, or anyone who may have seen the rabbits for sale, to call Wiltshire Police on 101, and quote crime reference number 54210124851.
