Theft-hit Telford firm criticises police response

A Telford company says travellers have caused damage put at tens of thousands of pounds. Ian Burgess, Chief Executive of Thompson Morgan, said a group of travellers moved on to the site and broke into the building, stripped it of cable and left several days later. The seed supplier criticised West Mercia Police for its response and "apparent lack of enforcement of the law". In a statement, West Mercia Police said: "We are sorry if anyone feels they have not received the service from us they would expect" but added that it couldn’t comment further while the complaint was dealt with.
