Stolen Caravan Recovered by Rural Crime Team Specials

On Sunday night a member of the public called Warwickshire Police believing they had seen their stolen Swift Group Caravan at the Corley Services on the M6.
Four Special Constables from the Rural Crime Team attended the services and located the suspect stolen caravan.
On inspection by the attending officers, it was clear that offenders had doctored the identifying markings for the caravan in an attempt to hide its true identity.
It was confirmed as the stolen caravan taken from an address in Coventry last month.
A male and female with the caravan were arrested on suspicion of theft.
Special Constables selected for the RCT are given the exact same tools and training as the regular officers on the team. This incident with the recovery, shows just how valued their time and efforts are to our team.
If you own a caravan, please take the time to register it with Cris https://www.cris.co.uk/ ,this process is invaluable to us when we conduct our checks. Its also well worth considering a tracker of some sort as this will dramatically increase the chances of its recovery.
