RE: Is this the script for a movie?
Up here like on Marys patch its theft of machinery from Tractors etc but JCBs, Quads, Mule 4x4s, generators but especially diesel, very recently not two miles from here a mother and son on a farm disturbed two diesel thieves in a pickup, the son raced to close the gate to stop them escaping but they ran him down breaking both legs and both hips. His poor mother saw it happed try to run to the house to dial 999 and dropped dead from a heart attack. Some small holdings and allotments are getting stripped are overnight, and entire fields full of sheep have been stolen in Tees and Wear dale areas.
Burglaries from rural homes and theft from garages, sheds, greenhouses is increasing as is poaching.
