Ticket machine in London Road carpark, Newark, stolen by thieves

A ticket machine was stolen from a Newark carpark.

It was taken by thieves from London Road carpark, Newark, on Thursday.

The ticket machine adjacent to Newark Library contained a limited quantity of cash at the time of the offence.

It was later found abandoned in a field outside of Newark.

Newark and Sherwood District Council, which operates the ticket machines, said machines are emptied daily and so the loss of money should be minimal.

A police investigation is now underway and it is believed the theft may be linked with similar offences in Derbyshire and Lincolnshire.
