🚨 Life-saving fire and rescue equipment stolen 🚨
Several Lincolnshire fire stations have been broken into over the past week, with specialist rescue equipment stolen. The similar methods used suggest a highly organised gang deliberately targeting fire stations.
This equipment is vital for rescuing people trapped in vehicles and missing tools could put lives at risk. There are also concerns the stolen equipment could be used for criminal purposes.
Please stay alert, especially to anyone impersonating a firefighter. Crews are usually accompanied by a fire engine and can show ID when appropriate.
