CCTV footage has been released after a number of goats were stolen in Wheathampstead.

Eleven goats were stolen from a freeholding off Kingfisher Close between 6pm on Tuesday, May 28 and 1pm on Wednesday, May 29, causing a loss of nearly £4,000 to the owner.

Herts police had previously released still CCTV images, but have now made footage available to the public.

The video shows one of the suspects entering the pen as the goats back away, before he runs to the rear of their enclosure, ushering them beyond the open and out of sight of the camera.
