SA Police are calling for help as they investigate three vintage utes being stolen from a rural property in the state’s mid north over the weekend.

Thieves entered the rural property on Hill Road at Dalkey near Balaklava sometime between Friday, October 23, and Sunday, November 1, after moving fencing to gain access.

Once inside, two older-model Vanguard utes and a ute body were stolen from the site, police said.

Police believe a tow truck or similar recovery vehicle may have been involved in the theft, as two of the three stolen vehicles were not fitted with wheels at the time they were taken.

Anyone with information about the theft is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 with police saying information can be provided anonymously.
