£900 Sheep Stolen – Lockerbie

Police Scotland is investigating the theft of a Beltex ewe, which was in lamb, from a paddock next to the main B723 road near to Sibbaldbie Bridge, Lockerbie. The ewe, which is valued at around £900 was stolen sometime overnight Tuesday 22/Wednesday 23 November 2016. It has red paint marks on its wool.

Constable Stephen Glendinning at Lockerbie said “this ewe seems to have been targeted as it was the only one out of a number in the field which was taken. The fences and gates are all secure and we are treating this as a theft. We are appealing for anyone who may have been on the B723 and who may have passed Sibbaldblie on Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning to get in touch with us through 101 if they saw anything suspicious.”
