A HEREFORD church has been targeted by burglars, with garden tools and machinery stolen.

A padlock was broken off a shed door at St Andrew's Church in the burglary, which is understood to have happened on June 26, said police community support officer Tally Hunt of the South Wye safer neighbourhood team.

The burglars made off from the church with an orange petrol mower, an orange and grey petrol strummer, an older orange petrol strimmer, and a green petrol can with two-stroke in it, PCSO Hunt said.
