Residents are urged to be aware of a vehicle seen in 'suspicious circumstances' in rural areas.
Dorset Police Rural Crime Team would like the public to be on the lookout for a white Ford Transit van with the registration number CV6 8E** seen in Bridport yesterday (Tuesday).
A spokesman said: "This vehicle has been seen in suspicious circumstances at rural locations around Bridport yesterday. Officers searched the area after it was reported to Dorset Police but sadly they weren’t able to locate the vehicle.
"If this vehicle or other vehicles are seen acting suspiciously, please gather as much information as possible such as the registration number and descriptions of the driver and any passengers and if it’s safe to do so please do take a photograph, don’t put yourself in danger to do this. Please contact Dorset Police immediately by calling 999 if the vehicle or occupants are seen committing crime. For non-emergency call 101 or at dorset.police.uk, via email 101@dorset.pnn.police.uk.
