The bike was stolen on Friday morning and police officers deployed to the area were able to arrest one suspect at around 1pm - just two hours after the theft.

Further enquiries and searches located a second suspect and he was arrested on Saturday morning.

Both have been remanded and are set to appear in court next week.

Police say these arrests are linked to Operation Gander, a wider West Mercia Police operation targeting an organised criminal gang responsible for a series of burglaries from farms across Shropshire and Wales.
