Police investigation after thieves stole garden shed but left all the contents

Devon and Cornwall police are investigating the ‘unusual’ theft of a complete garden shed. The shed's contents were first taken out before the thieves made off with the structure itself.

Police think somebody must have seen the shed being picked up and hauled away. The incident occurred sometime between Friday October 17 and Tuesday, October 22, at an unoccupied house in Heathfield, Newton Abbot.
 


The garden shed was removed from the rear garden and the contents were left in the rear garden. Officers have described the incident as 'most unusual'.

Acting Detective Sergeant Shane Robertson of Newton Abbot CID commented “This is a very unusual crime and I believe that someone local would have seen the removal of the shed”.
