Man questioned over Sittingbourne dog thefts

A man has been questioned after six dogs were stolen in Kent within a week.

The animals were all taken in the Sittingbourne area between 22 and 29 January. Four of the dogs have since been recovered safe and well.

Police are trying to trace the driver of a white panel van with rear doors seen where many of the thefts occurred.

The 22-year-old man, from Sheerness, was arrested on suspicion of theft and bailed pending further inquiries until 27 February.

The missing dogs are an alsatian and a pug.
