Portsmouth Truckstop in Farlington was targetted at about 00:45 BST on Saturday.

The owners say £45,000 worth of fuel was stolen.

Assistant manager Lewis O'Donnell told Wave 105: "It looks like a professional job".

"We're gutted, sad and angry. It must have been planned. We just don't know what the future holds at the moment".

The firm has set up a GoFundMe page to raise funds.
