Police have reunited a tractor with its owner just hours after the vehicle was reported stolen.
At around 4am on Wednesday morning (March 6) officers received a report that a New Holland Tractor had been stolen from a property in Nibley Green near Dursley.
It is believed that the tractor was taken between 10pm on Tuesday (March 5) and 3.30am on Wednesday morning (March 6).
Just before 7am, an eagle-eyed member of the public called to report a tractor abandoned in a field near Alkington Lane in Berkeley.
Officers arrived at the scene and were able to confirm the tractor matched the description of the one that had been reported stolen hours earlier. The tractor was almost four miles away from where it had been stolen from.
The owner was notified of the discovery and was able to collect his tractor just after 9.30am.
