Police are appealing for help after dozens of lambs were stolen in two separate incidents in the same part of Powys.

The thefts both took place in the Glasfynydd area of Trecastle.

The first theft involved the stealing of 12 lambs from the area between August 27 and 30.

Then earlier this month, between September 6 and 9, another 25 lambs were stolen from the same area.

Police are asking anyone who may be able to help to ring 111 and quote 306 for the thefts on August 30 and quote 149 for the incident on September 16.

Alternatively a report can be made via Crimestoppers Wales by ringing on 0800 555 111.
