Thieves take alpaca from garden
A ONE-YEAR-OLD alpaca worth £1,500 has been stolen from a farm, police said.
Britney was taken from a garden at the farm in Bewdley, Worcestershire, according to West Mercia Police. The female alpaca is described as being 3ft to 3ft 6ins high at the shoulder, with a white fleece.
A West Mercia Police spokeswoman said: “The owner thought she may have run off after being scared by a low-flying helicopter but even if she had managed to get out of the secure garden they don’t think she would have gone any further for fear of straying too far from the herd.”
