Catalytic converters stolen from vehicles in Tewkesbury
Police believe the theft of 10 catalytic converters valued at £10,000 from a business near Tewkesbury may be linked to similar losses in the area.
Detectives said the units were taken from motorhomes parked in a barn in Twigworth overnight on Thursday.
It is thought a wheelbarrow was used to carry the units across nearby farmland.
Recently five converters were stolen from a company on Gloucester Road. Four were taken from Tewkesbury Road and another removed from a parked van.
It is believed the converters are being stolen for their precious metal content as they contain platinum, rhodium and palladium.
