A tracker device on a tractor, taken from a yard in the Carryduff area of Lisburn earlier in July led to it's recovery a few hours later in the Newry area.

The tractor had been taken sometime between 9pm on July 18th and the following morning (19th July) from the Ballynahinch Road area. The vehicle, which had been fitted with a TRACKER device, was reported stolen at around 7am on July 19th and was located in the Newry area a short time later.

Chief Inspector Lorraine Dobson said, “We know that increased vigilance and security are key elements in denying criminals an opportunity of stealing machinery or equipment. Criminals are looking to exploit soft targets and the use of TRACKER has been very successful in deterring and detecting them. Adding these devices means that equipment is easily identifiable, and recoverable if stolen."
