The same day, acting on information, officers from North Yorkshire Police’s Rural Task Force – supported by colleagues from West Yorkshire Police – attended a location in Leeds.
There they found not only the caravan, but also a Land Rover Discovery with suspected fake number plates.
Both were seized and taken to a secure location for forensic examination – after which, the caravan will be returned to its rightful owner.
Sergeant David Lund, of the Rural Task Force, said: “This is an excellent result for the victim, and shows how we will work effectively with neighbouring police forces to track down stolen vehicles and property.”
