Digger stolen from Burley New Forest found in Ringwood

A digger stolen from the New Forest has been found hidden in a white van in Ringwood.

The van was discovered by police on Tuesday night (April 11) parked on a residential street in the town.

After investigation, police officers found that it had no tax, insurance, MOT or current keeper details.

Further enquiries lead officers to suspect that the van was storing stolen goods, so officers broke in through the back door.
