SPRAY CART STOLEN FROM THE FEDERATION RESERVE SHED.
On the night of the 19th October some person has used a set of bolt cutters to cut the padlock off the store shed at the Federation Reserve, East Barham Rd Barham. They have subsequently stolen a new spray cart that was purchased by the Barham Landcare Group to address the introduced weed problem at the reserve.
A distinctive feature of the cart is a custom installed yellow bar across the back of the machine to hold hoses clear.
It is extremely disappointing that someone has sunk so low as to steal an item of equipment bought by volunteers to use for keeping the reserve free of weeds.
Anyone knowing anything about the matter is urged to contact Barham Police.
