Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire officers conduct warrants to tackle rural crime, including in Newark

Three suspects have been questioned by police after a series of cross-boarder warrants were conducted.

Cross-border teams split in the early hours of Friday morning to descend on properties on Devon Road, Newark, Occupation Lane, East Bridgford, Wodehouse Avenue, Gotham, and a farm house in Hose, Leicestershire.

Officers recovered a number of suspected stolen items from the addresses including power tools, car parts and a horse trailer.

A 34-year-old man was arrested in Newark on suspicion of conspiracy to steal and possession of offensive weapons. Another man, 34, was detained in Gotham on conspiracy to steal and criminal property possession charges.

Both have since been released on bail while an investigation continues.
