A van found deserted on its side in a ditch near Burnham-On-Sea on Saturday morning (August 23rd) had been stolen from Weston earlier this week.
Thieves are believed to have careered off the road in the Astra (pictured here) while negotiating a sharp bend along Wick Road on the outskirts of Berrow.
The occupants then smashed a window to flee from the vehicle. The van’s owner, who is from Weston, told Burnham-On-Sea.com the vehicle had been stolen from the resort earlier this week.
