Officers investigating reports of a theft in Chester are appealing for anyone with any information to get in touch with them.

On Friday 14 March, police received reports of a theft from a compound known as the Ranger Cabin Compound, in Countess of Chester Country Park, Chester.

The incident involved the theft of signage and associated equipment for use during the Chester Parkrun.

The incident is believed to have occurred at some point between Sunday 9 March and Wednesday 12 March.

Officers are now asking anyone who witnessed what happened, saw anyone carrying Parkrun equipment from the compound into the Countess of Chester Hospital Car Park across those dates or has any other information to get in touch with them.

PC Chaloner said: "We have been conducting enquiries in relation to this incident and we would like to ask anyone who witnessed what happened to contact us.

"The same goes for anyone who has any information, has seen anything suspicious around the time of the incident, or has any relevant footage or wildlife cameras which could aid officers in their investigation."

You can report information via cheshire.police.uk/tell-us or call 101, quoting IML-2047393.
