Thirty animals, including chickens, ducks and geese, have been stolen from a property in Timperley.
Police were called to the house on Wood Lane after thieves took the birds between 5.30pm yesterday evening and 10.25am today.
The private residence has a small holding that backs on to Thorley Lane.
It’s understood the offenders cut padlocks attached to sheds in order to gain entry. No further information is known about how the animals were stolen.
Officers at GMP Trafford South posted on their Facebook page: “Do you have any information? Please keep a look out for these animals being sold, and report anything you believe to be suspicious to 101 or anonymously on Crimestoppers 0800 555 111.”
