Thieves make off with eight Christmas turkeys worth £800


The birds were stolen from a large chiller at a farm in Ocle Pychard, Herefordshire, in the six hours after midnight on Saturday.
The burglars are believed to have entered through a gate at the rear of the yard before getting into one of the barns where the Christmas meals were stored.
A West Mercia Police spokesman said: ‘The eight turkeys that have been stolen were each packed in their own individual box ready for cooking at Christmas.
‘The turkeys were all “Kelly Bronze” birds and each box was labelled with this name.
‘Six of the turkeys weighed 8kg and the other two weighed 9kg. The total value of the stolen turkeys is thought to be as much as £800.
