A spate of thefts involving specialist satellite receivers for tractors continues in South Holland - this time in Moulton Seas End.
The latest incident where a Star Fire satellite receiver was stolen from a farm happened some time overnight between Sunday and Monday.
Previous thefts of the device, which are valued at more than £10,000 each, have taken place at farms in Deeping St Nicholas, Moulton Eaugate and Sutton Bridge.
Advice from the NFU suggests that the receivers are designed to be removed easily and quickly at the end of a working day, making them a target for thieves.
Insp Jim Tyner, community policing inspector for Spalding, said: “This is a new offence for us but the fact is that if tractor users don’t remove these items, there is a chance that a thief will.
“These are unusual and specific pieces of equipment and I would ask people to be on the lookout for any being sold.”
Anyone with information should call police on 101, quoting incident number 255 of May 20, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
