Constable Holden said: “This will be a significant financial loss to the owner, and so our appeal is for anyone with information about what has happened to get in touch.
“To transport these lambs anywhere would have required a trailer and so we are keen to hear from anyone who was in the Teenaght Road area between the reported times, or earlier in the week, and saw any suspicious activity or unfamiliar vehicles.”
