Inspector Paul Rannard said: “These types of crimes can have a great financial impact on businesses and the staff involved who use this machinery in order to do their job and earn a living.
“I would like to appeal to businesses and anyone who was on Bankfield Street who may have any information about this van. This might range from knowing who was driving it, seeing someone being picked up, or capturing further images or footage on CCTV and dashcam devices.
“If you recognise or have seen the rock breaker pictured online or at other sites please let us know as it could be what we need to identify the suspects and bring them to justice.”
