The John Deere 7530 and 2,000 gallon Conor slurry tank with trailing shoe were stolen late on Sunday night or early Monday morning from the Scartaglen/Currow area.

The tractor and tanker were spotted in Athlone (County Westmeath), Ballymahon and Edgeworthstown, before being seen in Granard, a village in the north of County Longford, yesterday morning (Monday) at around 9.15am.

They were then sighted in Ballinagh, County Cavan, and at 11.40am in Castleblayney, County Monaghan.

It is understood the tractor was being driven, with no lorry involved in the movement.

The registration to look out for is 10-CW-243.

This is the second such theft this week, with a tractor and slurry tanker also stolen in County Armagh.

Anyone with information in relation to the stolen machinery in Northern Ireland should contact the PSNI on 101.
