On Tuesday evening at around 11pm a barn was broken into on the outskirts of Much Wenlock on the A458.  Offenders (believed to be three males) took a Stihl strimmer but were then disturbed by a neighbour.  

A vehicle for which we have no details (due to the darkness / distance) was used to make their escape which headed towards Much Wenlock.
