"Thieves steal "poisonous" strawberries from English farm"

Hill Farm in Kent, England, has reported that around 100kgs of poison coated strawberries have been stolen. The fruit, worth more than £300, were stolen, and the owners now worry that they may be sold to unwitting consumers.

A police spokeswoman said: "The fruit had recently been coated with a chemical to help growth which can cause poisoning to the stomach."

It is believed the same people have committed previous thefts from the farm, she added.

Kent Police said the thieves got into the farm by cutting a fence, before a vehicle was loaded with the strawberries sometime between midnight on Friday and 10:00 BST on Monday.
