Help Hunt For Stolen Tortoise Squirt

POLICE have joined the hunt for a tortoise called Squirt, after he was stolen from a Canvey garden.

The nine-year-old tortoise went missing from a house opposite Charfleets car centre in Canvey Road.

His owner Rachel Wood is now offering a £50 reward for information which leads to his safe return.

She said: "He's quite a nice little fellow.

"He's friendly and he likes interacting with humans and eating fruit from their hands.

"The problem is, he will be all lost and he needs to be put into hibernation."

Mrs Wood lives in Brentwood, but Squirt had been staying with her brother-in-law when he disappeared.

Police would like to speak to anyone who saw anything suspicious on Thursday, August 27.

They are also interested in hearing if anyone is offered a tortoise for sale.

Anyone with information is asked to call Canvey police on 0300 3334444.

Aaron Edgar, who is handling the sale for Galbraith, said: "Barlocco Island is in a truly stunning location near Kirkcudbright in Dumfries and Galloway and within an area of scientific interest both geologically and biologically.

"There's still a very romantic sentiment attached to owning your very own Scottish private island, where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy some peace and tranquillity in the most beautiful scenery around.

"The pebble beach is a delight and the perfect base to explore the island, partake in some cold water swimming or to anchor a boat and enjoy a waterside picnic."
