Officers and Police Dog Buzz Make Arrest and Recover Stolen Vehicle

In the early hours of yesterday morning officers responded to a report of a burglary in progress at a residential property in Claverdon. Officers from OPU, South Warwickshire Response teams, and our Dog Units attended the scene. On arrival the offenders have made off in a stolen Audi SQ5 and tried to ram our Police Dog unit off the road. The offenders failed and made off from the stolen vehicle. Police dog Buzz tracked from the vehicle and quickly captured one of the offenders who was arrested for burglary. PD Buzz continued tracking and found items of property discarded in fields. The Audi SQ5 was stolen last week from Shipston on Stour in another burglary and has been recovered for forensic examination. A great result for all involved.
