The horses – Image released by Kent Police
Information is sought by police investigating the reported theft of three horses from a paddock in Hartley near New Ash Green.
The theft is reported to have happened overnight, between 5.30pm on Thursday 21 November and 7am on Friday 22 November 2024 when the horses were stolen from a location near Church Road, after fencing was damaged to enter the property.
It is believed they were then led through fields onto Ash Road and loaded into a horsebox parked next to the nearby Royal Oak pub. Two of the horses are white and one has a very long mane. The third is a brown coloured foal, with a white stripe on her face.
Officers are continuing to engage with the victim and enquiries have also led to the identification of important CCTV footage from separate locations, which is in the process of being recovered and analysed. Residents in surrounding areas are urged to check doorbell cameras and CCTV for any other images which may assist the investigation.
Anyone with information should call Kent Police on 01622 604100, quoting reference 46/198687/24. You can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
