A tractor, worth a five-figure sum, has been stolen from a north-east farm.
Police are now appealing for witnesses after the John Deere 6125R tractor was taken from the Raemoir /Westhill area.
The theft is believed to have happened sometime between 9pm on Sunday and 7am yesterday.
It is believed it would have been loaded onto another vehicle.
Constable Alan Denny said: “The farming community is a tight knit one and I would ask that anyone who saw anything unusual or suspicious at the time mentioned or in the previous days contact police.
“It is likely that the tractor was loaded onto another vehicle and transported out of the area. Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101.”
