A miniature Shetland pony who was stolen eight months ago has been reunited with its owner.

Maisey was taken from a field in the Castle Combe area of Wiltshire between 11 and 12 July 2023.

The 16-year-old was located this week after Avon and Somerset Police received a call from a concerned member of the public who had seen a group of horses near the M5 at Avonmouth.

Police said the incident had shown the importance of chipping animals.
