Sheep Worrying Crime

Dear All.

This morning we have received a report from a local farm that 3 sheep have been attacked, sadly leading to the death of one and potentially the other two being put to sleep. This happened in the fields between Mansfield Road Edwinstowe and Gorsethorpe Lane 

It is unclear what may have happened but we would like to take this opportunity to remind people that It is a criminal offence to allow a dog to worry sheep. Worrying includes attacking or chasing sheep.

More information can be found here Sheep Worrying | National Sheep Association

If anyone has any information in to this incident please call 101 and quote incident 161 of 10th December, alternatively you can report anonymously via crime stoppers. 

Thanks

Laura
