A HORSEBOX bought as a little girl’s Christmas present was stolen from Littleton-upon-Severn on Friday, February 10 at approximately 3pm.

Due to a locked tyre, the trailer left skid marks all the way through the village during the theft.

Owner Patricia Hoare said that the trailer had a very rare tack box on the font, which makes it easy to identify.

She added: “I don’t care if it gets left close to Thornbury and a tip off left to the police, just so long as it’s returned.”

“I just want the trailer back – I only just bought it and it wasn’t insured yet.”

If you have any information relating to the whereabouts of the trailer, call the police on 101 and quote crime ref 5217030891.
