OFFICERS are continuing to search for a stolen quad bike – but have recovered a tractor that was taken.

It was reported the quad bike, a red Honda, had been taken from a property in Holton Heath on Tuesday, July 23.

Then, it was reported a blue Ford tractor had been stolen from a property in Sandford Road in Wareham on Wednesday, July 24.

The tractor has now been recovered close to where the theft took place, with no arrests made.

However, officers are yet to locate the quad bike, with enquires ongoing to find it.

Dorset Police previously appealed for the public’s help to find both the vehicles, urging anyone with dashcam footage or CCTV to get in touch.
