Van load of turkeys goes missing

Police are investigating the theft of van load of 150 frozen turkeys from a farm in Cornwall.

The owners of Gobblers Farm in Trebant, St Breward said the turkeys had been loaded into a van on Friday and were due to be delivered to a shop.

They were reported missing the next day when the turkeys did not arrive.

The farm estimated the value of the turkeys to be about £1,200. The owners said any customers who pre-ordered turkeys would be compensated.

The van was described as a white transit-style vehicle.

The driver was aged about 30 and was about 5ft 10ins tall, with black curly hair and wearing a hooded jacket and jeans.

A police spokeswoman said the van driver was not known to the farm.
