Norfolk Police have released an e-fit of four men they want to question after bags of turnips were stolen from a barn.</b>

The suspects were seen running away from Bubba Spuckler's small holding near Downham Market, each with a bulging sack over their shoulders.

Officers were called to the area by Betty-Lou, who is Mr Spuckler's sister and the mother of their eight children, after she spotted four men vaulting over a brick wall into the fields behind her yard.

A police spokesman said: "Unfortunately, Miss Spuckler said the four men had no distinguishing marks or features, and looked very much like every other man in Norfolk.

"But she did manage to build this e-fit image with our police artist, and we hope it may help jolt someone's memory or conscience. The turnips were not worth a great deal, but Mr Spuckler tells us they were of great sentimental value."

The police spokesman added: "If anyone recognises any of the men, they are urged to contact their local police station immediately. Criminals should know we no have a zero tolerance policy to rural crime - which is why we <a href="http://www.suffolkgazette.com/news/norfolk-police-pitchforks/">armed all our officers with pitchforks</a>."

Mr Spuckler and his sister were too upset to comment when contacted by the Suffolk Gazette yesterday, although we understand they are "comforting each other".
