Two ice-cream machines worth £10,000 each may have been "stolen to order".

The Carpigiani Super Uno machines, used to make soft ice cream, were stolen from two vans parked in a farmyard off Badsey Road, Evesham, Worcestershire.

PC James Wood said: "The owner had been looking to sell one of their vans and it is possible that whoever stole the machines was aware of this and the machines were stolen to order."

The theft happened between 17:30 on 21 August and 06:30 BST on 22 August.

The machines' serial numbers are 028309 and 227811.

Anyone with information is urged to contact police.
