Thames Valley Police have worked with INTERPOL to find a caravan nicked from Germany.
The caravan was recovered in West Berkshire, near Wiltshire, last week – after being located by Rural Crime Taskforce officers identified it as having been stolen.
Specialist officers then launched enquiries to establish where it had come from.
Working alongside partner agencies including Interpol and the National Construction and Agriculture Theft Team (NCATT), investigators were able to trace the vehicle’s history.
Those enquiries confirmed the caravan had been stolen in Germany before ending up in the UK.
The recovery forms part of the Rural Crime Taskforce’s ongoing work to tackle vehicle and equipment theft across Thames Valley, with officers regularly working alongside national and international partners to identify stolen property and return it to its rightful owners.
Sharing details of the seizure, Thames Valley Police said: “During the week, officers seized a caravan in West Berkshire as it was suspected to have been stolen.
“Our specially trained officers; working with partner agencies at Interpol & NCC, have been able to confirm that it was stolen from Germany.”
The force has not released any further details about the circumstances surrounding the seizure or whether any arrests have been made.
