POSTMASTERS in Bolton are being warned about a batch of stolen postal orders and vehicle excise licences which have been cashed in the North West.

A large number were taken during a burglary at a Post Office in Bristol earlier this month.

Some of the stolen orders and licences have already been cashed in the Liverpool area.

They have been stamped with Symes Avenue Post Office, Bristol.

Any postmasters presented with the stolen orders and licences should call the police straight away.
