Police appeal for info after VW fitted with stolen plates used for Mold petrol station fuel theft
Police in Flintshire are appealing for information after thieves stole number plates from a mini-bus in Buckley and used them on a vehicle which was later involved in a fuel theft from a garage.

There were two men in the VW. The driver was wearing blue jeans, a white top, a baseball cap and a face mask.”
