'˜Very rare' miniature ponies stolen from Fenland farm
It is believed the animals, which were left in a field surrounded by a chain link fence and a 10,000 volt electric fence, were taken overnight between 10pm on Wednesday (July 12) and 8am Thursday morning (July 13).
The thieves pushed their way through a hedge at the back of the field and cut the fence, disconnecting the electricity, before removing the horses and foals from the field.
