STOLEN HORSES
(sent out by hampshire, received from sussex)

Please read the following. A report has been received that 4 horses were missing from their field in Wood House Lane Botley, near Southampton. The initial period after the report was spent by the owner searching the immediate area to find the horses. The gate leading into the field was insecure. A padlock holding the gate in place had been knocked off.

No reports have been received that any combination of 4 horses had been found loose in the Botley area from any time after 1600 Friday 28th February 2014.

Given the known circumstances the loss has now to be considered as a theft. For one horse to be taken from its field is unusual in current times but 4 horses to be removed is extraordinary!!

If the removal is a theft then the thieves came prepared and are used to handing horses. The removal was premeditated.

Two of the horses were 12 and 14 year old geldings. The other two were colt yearlings and difficult to handle again giving rise to the thought that the persons removing the horses are experienced in dealing with horses.

If you are a resident in the Botley area and were in the locality of Wood House Lane between 1600 Friday 28th February 2014 and 0630 Saturday 1st March 2014 do you recall seeing a horse box or animal style transporter. Maybe there was something about the vehicle it occupants that drew your attention but at the time didn't know why. If so please contact the Hampshire Constabulary by dialling 101 and quote the reference number 44140074023.

Logically what are the chances of people driving into Hampshire to Botley to steal 4 horses? There is every possibility the horses were stolen by people from within the county. This not mean they will stay in the county or indeed are still within the county at this time.

Be eyes and ears…….local people will see things that others don't. If you suddenly become aware of a horse or horses in a field where there haven't been any and they match the descriptions of the missing horses below tell the police.

This e mail will be circulated nationally so readers will be in all parts of the country. When I say "local people" that will mean where you the reader are!

If you have any information about the theft, the persons responsible for the theft or where the horses maybe please contact Hampshire Constabulary by dialling 101. Quote reference 44140074023


If wish to pass on information anonymously call Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111
