A chainsaw and a cast iron anvil have been stolen in a house theft.

The chainsaw was pinched from a shed and the anvil was taken from outside the front of a house in Thorington between 11pm on Friday and 5:30am on Saturday.

A Suffolk police spokesman said: “Police believe, due to its weight, two people would have been needed to remove the anvil.”

Witnesses and people with information regarding this incident are urged to come forward.

Call police on 101.
