Officers say the thefts took place in Shirlett, between Much Wenlock and Bridgnorth, between 10pm on Sunday March 19 and 7am on Monday, March 20.

PCSO Malcolm Goddard, of the policing team in Broseley & Much Wenlock, said: "We are appealing for information after a white Toyota Hilux with a 16ft triple-axle trailer, a black Mitsubishi L200 - last three of registration RYW - a Yamaha Grizzly quad bike - last three of registration BFY - and a Suzuki Quad King were all stolen from an address in Shirlett."

PCSO Goddard added: "We are keen to hear from anyone who may have any information relating to the theft or that may have been in the area around the time of the incident and heard or seen anything suspicious.

"If you are out and about in the area today, please keep an eye out for these vehicles because offenders involved in this type of crime often steal them and then hide them in the local area, in case they have trackers fitted, and return to them later."
