Police are stepping up patrols in Telford amid a rabbit ‘surveillance’

Police are stepping up patrols in part of Shropshire after what they described as a “recent increase” in illegal rabbit running and poaching.

West Mercia Police said it had increased its presence in north Telford to deter criminals after a rise in rural crime, which also included car theft.

Officers asked residents to remain vigilant and report any suspicious behavior.

“Working together, we can effectively tackle these crimes and protect our rural areas,” added a force spokesman.
