A RECOVERY driver is struggling with his work after thieves stole his truck off his driveway.

Raja Javed, of Tiree Avenue, St Peter's, said the truck was the most important part of his job and he has been finding it difficult to do his job.

A neighbour's CCTV picked up the moment it was taken showing the moment a car pulls up outside of Mr Javed's home and somebody gets out, making their way to his driveway.

In a second clip, the truck can then be seen driving away from Mr Javed's property, with a car following it up the road and away from the camera.

He said: "It has been incredibly difficult for me this week since my truck was stolen.

"My work is vehicle recovery so that truck is the most important factor of my job.

"I have been speaking to the police and my insurance company but I am just waiting for any possible news now which is very difficult."

Mr Javed became aware of the theft after returning home from picking his son up from work.

He said: "I left to pick my son up from work and by the time we got back on Sunday evening it was gone.

"My neighbour had Ring Doorbell footage which showed my truck parked on the drive at 7.30pm. 

"Earlier this week another of my neighbours with CCTV managed to capture a car parking outside my home and a person walking out heading towards my driveway at around 8.37pm.

"I think from here the person got in the truck and drove it away."

A spokesperson for West Mercia Police said nobody has been arrested for the truck theft.
