Police in North Herefordshire are appealing for information after war medals were stolen during a burglary.

The incident was reported last Thursday but it is thought that the burglary could have been anywhere up to two weeks before it was noticed.

Seven medals were stolen from a rural property near to Leominster.

Investigating officers say the medals are unique as they have the surname HOLDER engraved on all of them, making them easily identifiable.

Anyone with information is urged to contact West Mercia Police on 101.
