West Mercia Police officers have issued an appeal after four males were seen acting suspiciously in Herefordshire.

No specific location has been shared.

A spokesperson for West Mercia Police said:

“It has been reported to Police that on the 19/01/2025, at approximately 10.10pm, four males were seen on a residents property, holding lamps, and lingering around the lake of their property.

The resident stated that she heard one of the males say: “I can’t find it, it must have got away.”

“Although, it is unknown what these individuals were doing, the behaviour is very suspicious and could possibly be poaching or lamping.

“When the resident decided to go and have a look outside, the four men got into their vehicle and drove away.
