A REWARD is being offered for the return of an ‘irreplaceable’ stolen van.

John Rose, from Milmoor Court, Low Valley was shocked on Tuesday morning when he discovered his custom Ford Transit Connect RS van had been taken from the street outside his home.

It has been customised with bigger wheels and lowered and leathered seats.

The van belonged to John’s company, Wombwell Tyres, and he said it was a recongisable sight to see him pulling up in it on work jobs.

He said: “It is irreplaceable. For it’s return I’m offering £1,000 reward. It’s been modified and cutomised and is very recognisable. They have taken it from right outside the house, and there was no sign of broken glass on the floor, or that it had been dragged onto a loader. It has been driven away.”

Anyone with information is asked to call 101 or email enquiries@southyorks.pnn.police.uk quoting crime reference number B/53955/2017.
