Major farm fire destroys £35,000 worth of machinery

A large scale farm fire in the Banbridge area has resulted in £35,000 worth of damage to machinery and the shed the equipment was stored in.

This is the fourth similar incident in the space of a week in the area and police want to end this worrying trend. 

The fire was reported at around 12.45am on Sunday morning and it took fire crews around seven hours to get the fire under control.

Police are now keen on finding a white van with the partial registration of KLZ, which was seen in the area at the time. 

Please call 101 and quote ref 96 of 22/9/19 if you have any information about this case.
