Selfish and senseless – the words used to describe the theft of vital equipment from a Cambridgeshire fire station.

“Sadly in the late hours of Wednesday evening someone gained entry to Wisbech Fire Station and stole some vital equipment from a fire engine,” said a spokesperson for Cambridgeshire fire and rescue.

“Although the crew would have still been able to respond to an emergency if needed, the equipment stolen is still used to help save lives and protect the community.

“It is a very selfish and senseless act that has been committed, and it’s important we try and recover the equipment (provided in the pictures).”

If anyone saw any unusual activity around the fire station in Wisbech between the hours of 10pm and 2am, or has been offered any of the equipment in the photos, please contact the police via the web chat service or call 101, quoting incident number 94 of 15 September
