A DISTINCTIVE bike engine has been stolen from a unit in Worcestershire.
Malvern police are appealing for information after the BSA Bantam 175 motorcycle engine was taken from a unit in Spring Lane, Malvern Link.
The incident happened between 5pm on Wednesday, October 7, and 8.30am on Thursday, October 8.
PC David Wise said: “This is a distinctive engine that would probably have been noted by scrap merchants or a collector may have even purchased it not knowing it was stolen property.”
The engine is worth around £100.
Anyone who saw anything suspicious in Spring Lane at about the time of the theft or has come across an engine matching the description should call PC Wise on 0300 333 3000, quoting 164/S/081009 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
