A CAST iron chiminea has been stolen from a York village.

Police have issued a CCTV image of a man that they would like to speak to after a theft in Askham Richard, York.

It happened in May this year, in De Mowbray Court, and involved someone stealing a cast iron chiminea.

“Enquires made with the delivery company have not identified the man as the delivery was outsourced to a separate company,” said a police spokesperson.
